What We Apostille in Arkansas

Every Arkansas-issued vital record, authenticated by Arkansas Secretary of State, Business and Commercial Services Division.

The Document Must Be Apostilled by the State That Issued It

This trips up most people. If you were born in Texas but live in California, your birth certificate is apostilled by Texas, not California. Our order form asks which state issued the document and routes it to the correct state automatically. If you are not sure, just ask us.

One Flat, All-In Price

The same price in every state. No per-state quotes, no hidden checkout fees. Return shipping is included.

How Fast You Will Have It in Arkansas

These are business days of processing once your document reaches us. Your timeline starts the day it arrives, so allow a few business days for your original to reach us by mail first, and a couple of days for the finished apostille to reach you.

Rush does more than save mail days. Our courier hand-carries your document into the state office, so we confirm the apostille went through and get it on its way to you several business days sooner. You see your exact ready-by date before you pay.

What to Watch For With an Arkansas Record

The verified, state-specific rules that trip people up, so your apostille is not rejected.

  • Arkansas apostilles come from the Secretary of States Business and Commercial Services Division in Little Rock, $10 per document, with a fast 24 to 48 hour turnaround.
  • Birth, death, and the state marriage and divorce coupons come from the Arkansas Department of Health Office of Vital Records.
  • A full county marriage license or court divorce decree routes through the Secretary of States Elections Division instead, which takes cash, check, or money order only.
  • Submit a certified copy, not a notarized photocopy. Two payees apply: the Health Department for the copy and the Secretary of State for the apostille.

We Check It Before the State Ever Sees It

Before we submit, we review your document against the state's current requirements and forms. If something is off, we tell you right away and fix it together, so you do not lose weeks or money on a rejection. Every order gets this VIP check, and it is all included in your price.
