    You must submit an "Original Certified Copy" issued by the Clerk of the Circuit Court in the Virginia county or city where the divorce was granted. A notarized photocopy is not acceptable.

    The document must be signed by the Clerk of the Circuit Court (or a Deputy Clerk) and must bear the official seal of the Circuit Court.

  • Document Must Be Complete and Unaltered

    The certified copy must be in pristine condition with no tears, staple holes, or any alterations. If it is a multi-page document, all pages must be certified as one complete document by the court.
