Notarized in New Hampshire: the exact route
A notarized document like this is authenticated through the notary, not the federal government. If it was notarized in New Hampshire, the apostille is issued by the New Hampshire Secretary of State in Concord.
- Hague Convention destination: the New Hampshire apostille is the final step.
- Non-Hague destination: the New Hampshire-authenticated document then goes to the U.S. Department of State and on to the destination’s embassy.
We don’t submit to the New Hampshire Secretary of State directly. Once your document has its New Hampshire authentication, we handle the U.S. Department of State and embassy steps for non-Hague destinations ($399).
Get the notarial wording right before signing — requirements vary by destination, and a mistake means redoing the whole chain.
