notary public with a valid commission must notify his or her executive judge of
their valid and professional email address of record prior to or together with their
first compliance with the requirement to submit digitized duplicate originals in
Section 2(h), Rule VI.

An email address is deemed valid when it is in the [local-partl@[dumain]

syntax and is capable of receiving emails from other senders, especially those
outside the address's own domain. To preserve the confidentiality, privacy, and
security of communications, the use by notaries public of personal,
nonprofessional email accounts as their email address of record is prohibited.

Each notary public must promptly notify his or her executive judge of any
changes to his or her email address of record. The failure to promptly notify the
executive judge shall be a ground for denial of the application for renewal of
commission.

RULEV
FEES OF NOTARY PUBLIC

SEC. 3. Prohibited fees. - No fee or compensation of any kind, except

those expressly prescribed and allowed herein, shall be collected or received for
any notarial service.

or other forms of processing or for any costs associated with such digitization and
processing.

RULE VI
NOTARIAL REGISTER

SEC. 2. Entries in the Notarial Register. - ...

(d) When the instrument or document is a contract, the notary public shall
keep an original copy thereof as part of the records and enter in said records a
brief description of the substance thereof and shall give to each entry a
consecutive number, beginning with number one in each calendar year. The
notary public shall retain an exact copy of the instrument or document in an
electronic file format prescribed by this Rules, which shall serve as the duplicate
original copy for the clerk of court.

The duplicate original copy for the clerk of court shall be in a PDF file and
must be a complete and exact reproduction of the original instrument or
document in paper. The contents must be completely legible. The reproduction
shall, as far as practicable, reproduce all colors and marks on all pages as
appearing in the original instrument or document in paper. The transmittal of a
duplicate original copy which does not comply with these requisites shall be a
punishable act pursuant to Section 1, Rule XII.

Each duplicate original copy shall be contained in its own PDF file. No
duplicate original copy shall be split or divided across multiple PDF files. The
file name of the PDF file must contain the short form of the document or

2
instrument's title or designation, the date the notarial act was performed, and, if
necessary to uniquely identify each file, short forms of the names of the parties.

(h) A certified copy of each month's entries and a duplicate original copy
in the electronic file format prescribed in Section 2(d) of this Rule of any
instrument acknowledged before the notary public shall, within the first ten (10)
days of the month following, be forwarded to the ~Ierk of ~ourt and shall be
under the responsibility of such officer. If there is no entry to certify for the
month, the notary public shall forward a statement to this effect in lieu of
certified copies herein required.

The duplicate original copies, if any, shall be electronically transmitted to

the clerk of court using only the notary public's email address of record further to
Section 15, Rule III. The subject of the transmittal email shall state the name of
the notary public and the month and year of the compliance in the format:

Subject: Notary Report of [Name of Notary Public] for

[Month and Y ear]

The body of the transmittal shall contain the name of the notary public, the
month and year of compliance, a statement on the date and mode by which the
certified copy of the covered month's entries was transmitted to the clerk of
court, number of duplicate originals transmitted, and a list of the designations or
titles of the duplicate original copies in the following format:

Notary public: [Name of notary public]

Compliance period: [Month and year]

Submission of notarial report: [state particulars on the date

and mode of transmittal to the clerk of court

Number of documents or instruments: [number]

Inventory: [numbered list of all duplicate original copies,

identified by their designations or titles, in short format]

All PDF files must be transmitted as direct attachments to the transmittal

email and not as extemallinks to cloud storage, file-sharing sites, or similar sites.
PDF files must not be contained in archive files, such as ZIP (.zip) or RAR (.rar),
and must not require additional extraction or conversion into PDF.

In case the total file size of the files exceeds the maximum size allowed for
attachments by the email service provider being used by the one filing, the notary
public shall transmit the duplicate original copies in several batches, but each
email must be clearly marked by indicating in the subject the batch number of the
email and the total batches of emails sent.

Format to Signatories. - A notary public shall, at no additional cost, transmit
through email or other electronic file-sharing mechanism upon mutual agreement,
a copy in electronic format, as prescribed in Section 2(d) of this Rule, to each
signatory of a document or instrument, within five (5) days from the completion
of the notarial act or from the deadline to transmit the duplicate original copy to
the clerk of court. A signatory may waive the transmittal of the duplicate original
copy in electronic format to them, which shall have the effect of a waiver of any
objections to the completeness of the reproduction.

If a signatory finds that there are material discrepancies affecting the rights
of any party between the document or instrument in their possession and the
duplicate original in electronic format transmitted to them, they must promptly
notify the notary pUblic, in writing, of such material discrepancies and request the
rectification of the duplicate original copy.

The failure to rectify material discrepancies or to respond to a signatory's

notice thereof shall be a ground for nonrenewal of a notarial commission and
temporary disqualification from being commissioned as a notary public.

The transmittal to a clerk of court of an unrectified duplicate original or

one which the notary public has been notified of material discrepancies shall be a
ground for revocation of the notarial commission and permanent disqualification
from being commissioner as a notary public.

RULE VII
SIGNATURE AND SEAL OF A NOTARY PUBLIC

SEC. 2. Official Seal. - (a) Every person commissioned as a notary public

shall have a seal of office, to be procured at his or her own expense, which shall
not be possessed or owned by any other person. It shall be of metal, circular in
shape, two inches in diameter, and shall have the name of the city or province and
the word "Philippines" and his or her own name on the margin, and the roll of
attorney's number on its face with the word "notary public" across the center. A
mark, image, or impression of such seal shall be made directly on the paper or
parchment on which the writing appears.

SEC. 3. Seal Image. - The notary public shall affix a single, clear, legible,
permanent, and photographically reproducible mark, image, or impression of the
official seal beside his signature on the notarial certificate of a paper instrument
or document.

impression of the official seal is visible when digitized in electronic file format,
further to Section 2, Rule VI, by means of ink, shading, or other similar
mechanism on the original mark, image, or impression. The use of a secondary
reproduction of the official seal, such as a stamp, alongside the official seal shall
not be a substitute or alternative to the requirement of a photographically
reproducible mark.

RULE XII
SPECIAL PROVISIONS

Notarial Acts. - All courts retaining duplicate original copies pursuant to Section
2(h), Rule VI, shall make an inventory and assessment of documents within their

furnished the Management Information Systems Office, for a determination of the
feasibility of digitizing their archives, particularly the digital preservation of the
