What does a Certificate of Authority verify?

  1. The Notary's education background

  2. The Notary's bank account details

  3. The genuineness of an official signature and seal

  4. The online presence of the Notary

The correct answer is: The genuineness of an official signature and seal

A Certificate of Authority verifies the genuineness of an official signature and seal. This document confirms that the notary public is authorized to perform notarial acts within their jurisdiction. The other options are incorrect as a Certificate of Authority does not verify the notary's education background, bank account details, or online presence.
