Original Document Requirements
Before submitting your original, confirm the following:
- The document is either the original or a certified copy issued by the state of Nevada
- It includes a valid authorized signature
- It’s in good condition and recently issued
Processing time for original documents is typically 4–10 business days, depending on the type and issuing authority.
The Nevada Secretary of State will apostille documents only if:
- Birth, marriage, divorce, and death certificates must be certified copies issued by the County Recorder or County Clerk where the event occurred
- Las Vegas marriage certificates must be certified copies from the Clark County Recorder/Clerk
Please note: Marriage certificates signed by the judge who married you in Las Vegas are not acceptable for apostille. To obtain the correct certified copy of a Las Vegas marriage certificate, call the Clark County Clerk Marriage Bureau at 702-671-0600 and request a “certified copy.”
For other vital records, request certified copies from:
Nevada Office of Vital Records and Statistics
4150 Technology Way, Room 104
Carson City, NV 89706
Scanned Photocopy of Original Document
You may submit a scanned copy if the following apply:
- You don’t have the original or it’s damaged
- The document is older than 10 years
- You need urgent processing (24 hours or less)
- The destination country accepts apostilled scans
Please note: For scanned documents, both notarization and apostille will occur in New York, not Nevada. This process ensures speed, especially for international clients needing immediate certification.
