Why living in Georgia doesn’t change the route

This document is issued by Internal Revenue Service, a federal authority. Federal documents are authenticated only by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. — the Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority (GSCCCA) in Atlanta has no authority over them, and a state apostille on a federal document will be rejected abroad.

So the process for Georgia residents is the same as for anyone else in the country: get the document to us, we hand-deliver it in Washington, and it comes back ready to use.

Atlanta: the local details

Atlanta is in Fulton County, within the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Georgia. Georgia state documents are apostilled by the Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority (GSCCCA) in Atlanta.
