Guidelines Issued by the Arkansas Secretary of State for Apostille

Verify the specific requirements of the destination country, as rules may vary.

Arkansas documents must have been issued within the last five years.

Documents must be properly notarized by an Arkansas Notary Public or bear the seal and signature of an Arkansas elected official.

Each notarized document must include an acknowledgment statement for every signature.

Only original documents, certified copies, or true and perfect copies authenticated by the notary are acceptable. Notaries cannot certify photocopies of vital or public records.

Foreign language documents must be translated into English with a proper affidavit and notarial acknowledgment. Translations must be certified by a qualified translator and notarized with proper acknowledgment.

Documents ineligible for apostille or certification include those in a foreign language without translation, related to immigration or citizenship, lacking proper notarization, or issued by the U.S. Department of State.

Submit documents to the Elections Division for seals from elected officials (e.g., marriage licenses) and to the Business and Commercial Services Division for state agency documents or notarized copies (e.g., diplomas, birth certificates).

Include a self-addressed, stamped envelope for express mail returns; submit original or certified copies of vital records, as notarized photocopies are not accepted.

How do I get an apostille in Arkansas?

To obtain an apostille in Arkansas, you'll need to follow a specific process designed to authenticate Arkansas documents for international use. An apostille from the Arkansas Secretary of State verifies the authenticity of documents such as Arkansas birth certificates, marriage certificates, academic diplomas, and more, in countries that are parties to the Hague Apostille Convention.

First, determine which documents you need to have apostilled. These documents must be original or notarized. If your document is only certified, then obtain a certified copy or complete notarization. Download the Arkansas apostille request form from the Secretary of State’s website. Fill out the form with accurate information, then submit these documents along with the apostille request form and fees to the Secretary of State’s office specified for your type of documents, either in person or by mail. If using the mail service, include a self-return envelope.

Differentiating between the departments for apostille request submission in Arkansas can be confusing. Hiring Globeia's Arkansas apostille service can help you navigate this process easily and without any delays.

The Arkansas Secretary of State's office charges $10 for each document that needs to be apostilled.

Furthermore, if certifications are required, the cost per document is $5. Payment methods include credit cards at the Business & Commercial Services Division and cash, checks, or money orders at the Elections Division. For faster processing, there is an additional fee. For more details, contact the Arkansas Secretary of State's office.

How long does it take to get an apostille certification from the Arkansas Secretary of State?

Getting an apostille certification from the Arkansas Secretary of State generally takes about 24 to 48 business hours, plus shipping. Orders are typically processed promptly upon receipt, often on the same day. If documents require additional certification or notarization, the processing time might vary.
