How It Works

From document review to return delivery, in four coordinated steps.

The exact path depends on where the document was issued, whether it must be notarized or certified, and the country where it will be used. The service begins by confirming those requirements before filing.

  1. Confirm the document type

    Identify the issuing state or agency, the destination country, and whether the receiving party requested an apostille.

  2. Review preparation requirements

    Determine whether the document needs an original signature, notarization, certified copy, or agency-issued record.

  3. Submit for Nevada processing

    A fileable request is prepared and submitted using the selected Nevada Secretary of State processing tier.

  4. Coordinate return delivery

    The completed apostille is returned according to the shipping, pickup, or handoff option associated with the order.

Common Questions

What people usually need to know before starting.

Can a notary issue an apostille directly?

No. The apostille is issued by the appropriate government authority. A notary may be involved when a document must be notarized before submission, while the apostille service coordinates the filing and return process. Review apostille versus certified-copy requirements.

Does every document need notarization before an apostille?

No. Government-issued vital records and court records commonly require certified copies, while privately signed documents may require notarization. The correct path depends on the document source and intended use.

Does expedited processing guarantee a delivery date?

No. An expedited state-processing tier applies after a fileable request is received. Document readiness, filing cutoff, signature verification, government volume, staffing, equipment, and return delivery can affect the total completion date.

Can documents be handled for customers outside Nevada?

Nevada-issued or Nevada-notarized documents may often be coordinated by mail or courier. Documents issued by another state generally require authentication through the appropriate authority for that state.
