Verifying South Carolina Documents for Apostille Certification

Follow these guidelines to make your South Carolina (Charleston, Columbia, or other) documents internationally valid internationally. Begin by getting your original documents signed from the issuing authority and getting them notarized by a South Carolina Notary, except for vital records.

For birth, death, and marriage certificates, no notarization is needed, so you can simply get certified copies from the Vital Records Division. Certified copies of business records are issued by the South Carolina Secretary of State’s Division of Business Filings.

You will have to go to the Probate Court, County Clerk's Office, or the Vital Records Division of South Carolina for marriage and divorce papers. By checking and preparing documents according to these guidelines, you will be able to get them apostilled for international use.
