Original Document
Before submitting an original document, make sure it meets the following criteria:
- It is an original or an official certified copy issued by the state of Nebraska
- It includes a valid, authorized signature
- It has been issued recently and is in acceptable condition
Processing time for original documents typically ranges from 4 to 10 business days.
The Nebraska Secretary of State will issue apostilles for the following:
- Nebraska-issued birth, marriage, and death certificates
- Certified marriage licenses and divorce decrees
- Notarized documents signed by a licensed Nebraska notary public
- Official records issued by recognized Nebraska government agencies
Scanned Photocopy of Original Document
You may be eligible to submit a scanned copy if:
- The document lacks the required signature
- The original document is no longer usable
- It was issued more than 10 years ago
- The destination country allows apostilles on scanned copies
- You require the apostille within 24 hours
Please note: In cases involving scanned copies, notarization and apostille must occur in the same state. That means your scanned document will be notarized and apostilled in New York, not Nebraska.
What If I Don’t Have My Original Document in Nebraska?
If you no longer have the original document, you can request a certified copy from the appropriate authority in the state of Nebraska, such as the Nebraska Office of Vital Records, or an online service such as VitalChek.
You can request birth certificates, marriage records, divorce decrees, and other documents required to complete the apostille process.
