Why living in Nebraska doesn’t change the route

This document is issued by US Department of Agriculture / APHIS, a federal authority. Federal documents are authenticated only by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. — the Nebraska Secretary of State in Lincoln has no authority over them, and a state apostille on a federal document will be rejected abroad.

So the process for Nebraska 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.

Omaha: the local details

Omaha is in Douglas County, within the U.S. District Court for the District of Nebraska. Nebraska state documents are apostilled by the Nebraska Secretary of State in Lincoln.

About the USDA Phytosanitary

How to apostille a USDA phytosanitary certificate for exporting plants and agricultural products.

Validity windows are short. Phytosanitary certificates are tied to a consignment and many countries reject one issued too early. Issuance, authentication and arrival have to be planned together.
