When Do You Need an Apostille?
You need an apostille whenever a government agency, foreign business, court, or institution in another country requires proof that your U.S. document is genuine. In Colorado, apostilles are issued by the Colorado Secretary of State and are required when submitting documents internationally for purposes such as:
- Applying for dual citizenship, a foreign residency visa, or a work permit abroad
- Getting married in a foreign country
- International adoption proceedings
- Enrolling in a university outside the United States
- Conducting business with international partners or foreign government agencies
- Providing legal documents to a foreign court or embassy
Common documents that require apostille certification include birth certificates, marriage certificates, death certificates, diplomas and transcripts, powers of attorney, court orders, corporate filings, and notarized affidavits.

Apostille FAQ
How much does an apostille cost in Colorado?
MJ Notary Denver charges $175 for full apostille service, which includes document notarization and preparation. The Colorado Secretary of State charges a separate state filing fee for the official apostille certificate. Copy certifications are $5 per document. Travel fees start at $45 depending on your location within the Denver metro area.
How long does an apostille take in Colorado?
Processing time depends on the Colorado Secretary of State’s current workload. Standard processing typically takes 5–10 business days after submission. Expedited options may be available directly through the Secretary of State’s office. Contact us to discuss your timeline so we can help you plan accordingly.
What is the difference between notarization and an apostille?
A notarization verifies that signatures on a document are authentic. An apostille takes that one step further — it certifies the notary’s authority and makes the document officially recognized in participating countries under the Hague Convention. International document requirements typically need both: notarization first, then the apostille.
What documents can receive an apostille in Colorado?
Only documents issued by a public authority are eligible — government-issued certificates, court records, and properly notarized documents. Common examples include birth certificates, marriage licenses, death certificates, diplomas, powers of attorney, business filings, and notarized affidavits. Purely private documents without notarization are generally not eligible.
