Navigating Business Formalities: The Certificate of Incumbency Document Apostille Service in the USA
Notarization: The document may need to be notarized by a licensed notary public to confirm its authenticity.
Secretary of State Authentication: The Certificate of Incumbency must then be authenticated by the Secretary of State in the state where it was issued. This step verifies the authority of the notary public who attested to the document.
Apostille Issuance: Once the Secretary of State authentication is complete, the final step is to obtain the apostille from the appropriate authority. In the USA, this is often the Secretary of State's office or a designated agency.
