Do you need to apostille a death certificate?
At USA Apostille, Inc., we take the guesswork out of obtaining an apostille on a death certificate.
We can apostille death certificates issued from all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia. For countries who are non-members of the Hague Apostille Convention, we can also process the death certificate through the U.S. Department of State and the Embassy or Consulate office.
In order to apostille a death certificate, you must mail in the original or a certified copy issued by the County Clerk or State Registrar to our office for processing. Death certificates can only be authenticated from the State of origin. The Secretary of State does not have the authority to authenticate death certificates issued from another state. For example, a California death certificate cannot be processed in New York.
Not every death certificate qualifies for an apostille. We recommend that you mail in the certificate you currently have for review before ordering a new one. If the State rejects your document, we will contact you with instructions.
Please Note: We can only help you with documents originating from or notarized within the United States and for another country. If the death certificate is originating from another country, you will need to contact the correct competent authority to assist you in that country.
Obtaining an apostille can be complicated. Don’t leave this process to untrained employees or non-professionals who do not fully understand the apostille process and the unique requirements of certain countries. Your paperwork could be rejected costing you time and money. Don’t let this happen to you!
