Apostille
How do I get an apostille in Utah?
Quick Answer
In Utah, apostilles are issued by the Lieutenant Governor's office. First get your document notarized, then submit it to the state for apostille certification.
The apostille process in Utah involves two main steps: notarization and state certification.
Step-by-step process:
- Notarize your document: Have a Utah notary public notarize the document (or certify a copy if applicable)
- Prepare your submission: Complete the apostille request form from the Utah Lieutenant Governor's website
- Submit to the state: Mail or deliver the notarized document to the Utah Lieutenant Governor's office in Salt Lake City
- Pay the fee: Utah charges a fee per apostille (check the current rate on the state website)
- Receive your apostille: The state verifies the notary's commission and attaches the apostille certificate
Important notes:
- The notary must be a current Utah-commissioned notary — expired commissions will cause rejection
- The document must be notarized (or certified) before submission
- Processing times vary — see current timelines
- Expedited processing may be available for an additional fee
