Why living in Florida doesn’t change the route

This document is issued by US Citizenship and Immigration Services, a federal authority. Federal documents are authenticated only by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. — the Florida Department of State in Tallahassee has no authority over them, and a state apostille on a federal document will be rejected abroad.

So the process for Florida 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.

Naples: the local details

Naples is in Collier County, within the U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Florida. Florida state documents are apostilled by the Florida Department of State in Tallahassee.

About the Naturalization Certificate

How to apostille a Certificate of Naturalization for use abroad.

You cannot photocopy this certificate. Reproducing a naturalization certificate is restricted under federal law, and the Department of State won't apostille the original. The only acceptable document is a USCIS-issued certified copy, usually obtained via Form N-565 — which takes months, so start early.
