Notarized in Minnesota: the exact route
A notarized document like this is authenticated through the notary, not the federal government. If it was notarized in Minnesota, the apostille is issued by the Minnesota Secretary of State in St. Paul.
- Hague Convention destination: the Minnesota apostille is the final step.
- Non-Hague destination: the Minnesota-authenticated document then goes to the U.S. Department of State and on to the destination’s embassy.
We don’t submit to the Minnesota Secretary of State directly. Once your document has its Minnesota 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.
