Common Questions
What is the County Clerk requirement?
No separate county clerk step: the Secretary of State verifies that the notary held a New Mexico commission, or the certifying official held office, at the time of signing.
Can I walk in?
Yes. You may request an apostille online, in person, or by mail; the request must be filed online at enterprise.sos.nm.gov, and requests are processed Monday-Thursday, 8:00 a.m.-4:30 p.m.
