An apostille is a certificate which is attached to a document to validate the document for use in a foreign country. Apostilles are mostly used for document transfers between countries that belong to the
Hague Apostille Convention. Apostilles are required in Wyoming for various purposes, such as immigration, visas, education in foreign countries, business, and many more.
To get an apostille in Wyoming, the first step is to complete the documentation. Prepare your document according to the Wyoming Secretary of State guidelines and complete the notarization, if required, by an official Wyoming notary public. Obtain certified copies from the relevant offices if required.
Once your document is ready for the apostille from the Wyoming Secretary of State, submit it along with the completed apostille request form. Specify the destination country, and ensure to include the address and phone number. Submit the payment and the documents to the office, or you can mail them to the Wyoming Secretary of State office.
When using mailing services, ensure to include prepaid return shipping, as the Wyoming Secretary of State is not responsible if your document is lost. Be sure to include the complete return shipping address properly. When the Wyoming Secretary of State receives your request, they will start processing your document and issue the apostille, ensuring it goes through the proper validation process.
