Certify documents issued in Alaska for official use in the United Kingdom and abroad.
Isarey offers specialist assistance obtaining Alaska Apostilles and Authentications for documents needed for formal use outside the United States and for submission to foreign embassies and consulates.
Alaska Apostilles and Authentications are issued by the Alaska Lt. Governor’s office in Juneau. Processing takes around 3 weeks (expedited services not available). Apostilles can be obtained for documents that have been properly notarized by a commissioned Alaska Notary Public, and for official certified copies of Alaska Vital Records, Court or other official state documents. Copies not certified recently may not be accepted and will require re-certification in Alaska by a current State Official.
