Why living in Georgia doesn’t change the route
This document is issued by Federal Aviation Administration, a federal authority. Federal documents are authenticated only by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. — the Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority (GSCCCA) in Atlanta has no authority over them, and a state apostille on a federal document will be rejected abroad.
So the process for Georgia 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.

What the Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority (GSCCCA) can do
The Georgia Superior Court Clerks' Cooperative Authority (GSCCCA) in Atlanta issues apostilles for documents signed by Georgia officials — birth, death and marriage certificates from Georgia registrars, Georgia state-court records, and documents notarized by Georgia notaries. It has no authority over federal documents such as FBI reports, USCIS certificates or IRS letters.
State offices set their own procedures and fees, so confirm current requirements with the office before submitting a state document.
