What Is a South Carolina Apostille?

An apostille is a certificate that authenticates a South Carolina public document so it is accepted in countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention. South Carolina apostilles are issued by the South Carolina Secretary of State. Elite Documents prepares, reviews, and submits your documents on your behalf.

South Carolina Document Requirements

  • Vital records and court documents: original, recently issued certified copies.
  • Corporate documents: many states accept a certified PDF issued by the state; some require the document to be reissued before apostille.
  • Private documents (bank statements, passport copies): must be notarized first. We offer in-person and remote online notarization.
  • Not sure if your document qualifies? We review every document before filing and will tell you if a new copy or notarization is needed.
