Avoiding Rejection: A Guide to the Idaho Marriage Certificate Apostille Process

Rules for Marriage Certificate

  • Certified Document

    You must submit an original certified copy issued by the Idaho Bureau of Vital Records and Health Statistics or a County Recorder/Clerk. It must have the original signature of the State Registrar or County official.

  • Notarization is REQUIRED (Critical Step)

    This is Idaho's key requirement. The certified marriage certificate must be notarized by an Idaho Notary Public before you send it to the Secretary of State. The notary must affix their seal and complete their notarial certificate. Rejection Cause: Sending the document without this notarization. The state apostilles the notary's signature, not the Vital Records official's signature directly.

  • Complete Cover Sheet

    While a specific form is not always mandatory, you must include a cover letter with your request stating the type of document, the country it will be used in, your contact information, and the number of documents enclosed.

  • Correct Payment

    Include a $10.00 per apostille fee. Payment must be made by check or money order payable to "Idaho Secretary of State." Cash is not accepted for mail-in requests.

  • Pre-Paid Return Shipping

    You must include a self-addressed, stamped envelope with sufficient postage. Using a trackable service like USPS Priority Mail is highly recommended.
