Iowa

The Iowa Secretary of State in Des Moines issues apostilles with minimal ceremony: notarized documents submit directly, certified vital records come from county recorders or the Iowa HHS Bureau of Health Statistics, and the state fee is $5 per document.

Iowa’s international caseload is grain and machinery export certifications plus the usual family documents. Ag export paperwork often pairs a state apostille with USDA documents that go federal, and we run both chains in parallel so shipments don’t wait.

Full-service timing: one to three weeks depending on the state (call us and we’ll tell you where yours currently stands). Pricing: rates page. /order/ or (212) 245-9690.
