Documents Mississippi can apostille

• Documents notarized by a Mississippi notary public
• Documents bearing the signature of a Mississippi public official

The issuing state is what matters, not where you live now. A document issued or notarized in another state goes to that state's office, and documents from federal agencies go to the U.S. Department of State through our federal apostille service.

Mississippi requirements to check before you book

• Documents must be notarized by a Mississippi notary public or bear the signature of a Mississippi public official.Source
• A notary who does not work for the issuing agency may not certify copies of official government documents such as birth or death certificates, driver's licenses, passports or Social Security cards.Source
• Send original documents with the completed Apostille Certification Request Form and payment.Source

Good to know

• Notary-certified copies of official government records (vital records, IDs, passports, Social Security cards) are not acceptable unless the notary works for the issuing agency.
• Return address on the request form controls where the certificate is mailed.

About our Mississippi apostille service

How it works

1. Book onlineChoose the option that matches your document and destination, then tell us the document type, the country where it will be used, and your deadline.
2. We review your document firstBefore anything is filed, we check it against the Mississippi requirements on this page. If a step is missing, such as a notarization or a certified copy, we tell you what's needed before we file.
3. Send your original or meet a notaryWe send mailing instructions after you book. If your document still needs to be signed and notarized, one of our mobile notaries can meet you, or you can use remote online notarization where it's accepted.
4. We file and track itWe submit your request to the Mississippi Secretary of State with the government fee and follow it until the office releases it.
5. We ship it backYour documents come back by tracked shipping. If your destination also needs embassy legalization or a certified translation, we can handle that next.

Pricing

$350 per document.

Prices include the Mississippi state fee, courier filing, return shipping, and handling. Sales tax is added at checkout where it applies, and any deposit is shown before you pay. If you have more than one document, tell us the count when you book and we'll confirm your total.

Government processing times are set by the issuing office and change during the year. We don't promise a delivery date that depends on a government office, and we'll tell you the current timing when we review your order.
