Two ways to process a Mississippi document
- True Copy Processing: begins with an upload and authenticates the notary's certification. Its apostille state may differ from Mississippi.
- Original Document Processing: use this when you want the original Mississippi document handled through the state-specific route.
- One national service: this page is for Mississippi documents and does not represent a local office.
Who issues apostilles in Mississippi
Apostilles for public documents that originate in Mississippi are issued by the Mississippi Secretary of State in Jackson. Original Document Processing sends your physical document through that office. True Copy Processing works from a scan and is apostilled by the state where our notary is commissioned, which may not be Mississippi, because the apostille certifies the notary's signature rather than the Mississippi issuing agency.
