VERMONT APOSTILLE
Apostille Services in Vermont — Fast, Secure, Nationwide
Whether you're moving abroad from Burlington, applying for dual citizenship out of South Burlington, or handling a corporate filing from Rutland, Vermont-issued documents need to be apostilled by the Vermont Secretary of State before they'll be accepted overseas. We handle the full process end-to-end. Vermont apostilles are issued in Montpelier. Burlington and Rutland residents mail documents in — Vermont's low volume typically means quick turnaround.
Service fee includes state filing fees and U.S. domestic return shipping via 2-day FedEx (UPS used for federal documents only). International return shipping available for an additional fee.
No payment required to request a quote. We confirm your document's processing route, total price, and estimated timeline before payment.

- Only original certified copies of Vermont government records or original notarial acts by a Vermont-commissioned notary public are accepted; duplicates are rejected.
- Certified Vermont court records must include the printed name of the issuing court staff member and the certification date.
