Nebraska Apostille & Document Authentication
Nebraska’s online request is an order and payment step. The original signed document must still reach the Notary Division for authentication.
Eligible signatures and payment
The Secretary of State requires an original signed by a Nebraska notary or state or county official. Examples include eligible vital records, decrees, school records and powers of attorney. Different notarizations on one document can incur separate fees; incorrect payment can delay processing.
Prepare and send the package
Enclose the online transaction receipt or completed paper request, the original certified or notarized document and return instructions. Name the destination country. Use the form’s postal address for USPS or its physical address for FedEx/UPS.
Service estimate
Premier’s typical other-state service estimate is 5–7 business days, subject to document review, the submission route and authority availability. Shipping time is additional. Confirm timing before committing to a deadline.
Frequently asked questions
What happens without a return label?
The published instructions say the documents return by standard postage to the request address. Include a suitable prepaid return label when tracked return is needed.
