# How to get an apostille on a Wyoming document

By Deanna Crossman, Wyoming notary public and founder of Sagebrush Corporate Solutions · Updated November 11, 2026

Short answer

An apostille certifies a document so it’s accepted in countries that belong to the Hague Apostille Convention. The **Wyoming Secretary of State** issues apostilles for **$20 per document**.

The document must be certified by a Wyoming official (such as the Secretary of State, a county clerk or the state registrar) or notarized by a **Wyoming** notary. Federal documents get their apostille from the US Department of State instead.

## Which office issues your apostille

| Document | First step | Apostille from |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Wyoming company filings (Articles, certificate of good standing) | Order a certified copy from the Wyoming Secretary of State | Wyoming Secretary of State |
| Private documents (operating agreement, resolution, power of attorney) | Notarize with a Wyoming notary (remote notarization works) | Wyoming Secretary of State |
| Wyoming birth, death or marriage records | Get a certified copy from the issuing Wyoming office | Wyoming Secretary of State |
| Federal documents (FBI background check, IRS letters) | Use the original federal document | US Department of State |
| Documents notarized or issued in another state | Follow that state’s rules | That state’s Secretary of State |

## Step by step

1. **Confirm the destination country.** Hague Convention countries accept an apostille. Other countries need an authentication from Wyoming followed by legalization at that country’s embassy or consulate.
2. **Get the right version of the document.** A certified copy for public records, or a Wyoming notarization for private documents. Plain photocopies and documents notarized in other states won’t be accepted.
3. **Submit to the Secretary of State.** Include a written request naming the country where the document will be used, and $20 per document. The office is at the Herschler Building East, 122 W 25th St, Cheyenne, WY 82002.
4. **Arrange return shipping.** Include a prepaid return envelope, or use a service that picks up the finished apostille for you.
