Federal Apostille Services in Arizona

How Arizona residents get federal documents apostilled — and how that differs from Arizona state documents handled by the Arizona Secretary of State.

Quick answer

There’s no federal apostille counter in Arizona — or anywhere outside Washington, D.C. Federal documents from Arizona residents are authenticated by the U.S. Department of State. Arizona state documents go to the Arizona Secretary of State in Phoenix.
