Notarized in Indiana: the exact route

A notarized document like this is authenticated through the notary, not the federal government. If it was notarized in Indiana, the apostille is issued by the Indiana Secretary of State in Indianapolis.

  • Hague Convention destination: the Indiana apostille is the final step.
  • Non-Hague destination: the Indiana-authenticated document then goes to the U.S. Department of State and on to the destination’s embassy.

We don’t submit to the Indiana Secretary of State directly. Once your document has its Indiana authentication, we handle the U.S. Department of State and embassy steps for non-Hague destinations ($399).

Get the notarial wording right before signing — requirements vary by destination, and a mistake means redoing the whole chain.
