Common Questions
What is the County Clerk requirement?
Only for non-Hague countries. A notarized document that needs a Certification (non-Hague) must first be authenticated by the probate judge of the county where the notary is commissioned. Documents receiving an Apostille (Hague countries) need no county step.
Can I walk in?
Yes. The Secretary of State's Authentication Division (11 South Union Street, Suite 224, Montgomery) offers walk-in service 8:00 AM–4:30 PM, Monday–Friday.
