Federal Apostille Services in Nebraska
How Nebraska residents get federal documents apostilled — and how that differs from Nebraska state documents handled by the Nebraska Secretary of State.

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