Apostille

Last updated Monday, June 16, 2025

Beginning August 1, 2013, Nevada adopted the Model Apostille Certificate of the Hague Conference on Private International Law. The Nevada Apostille is modeled on the trilingual model certificate published by the Hague Conference and is processed according to the National Uniform Apostille Standards. Nevada Registered Agent Service™ also offers Apostille services starting at $200.

What is an apostille?

Apostilles authenticate the seals and signatures of officials on public documents such as birth certificates, court orders, or any other document issued by a public authority so that they can be recognized in foreign countries that are members of the 1961 Hague Convention Treaty.

All certificates are printed in black and white with a black non-embossed Nevada State Seal. The only signature on the Nevada certificate is the signature of the Secretary of State and will be printed from an official signature on file with this office.

The certificate is always 8.5 x 11 inches and addresses the capacity of the public officer. The certificate is attached using staples to the front left side of the signature page that bears the public official’s signature. The certificate is offset to the left of the signature page allowing for the use of an official red-colored stamp placed on the right side of the document (partially on the certificate and partially on the underlying signature page).

Adopting these standards has minimized the misunderstandings of the legalization requirements on documents going abroad.

Apostille New Standard Sample

The Office of Secretary of State provides Authentication of Signatures, also known as Apostilles or Certifications of any document to be presented to a governing body of a foreign sovereignty.

Marriage Certificates
