The copy must not be notarized. In addition, the certificate must have the signature and seal of the state or country registrar.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"step-2-submission\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 2: Submission&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Find the official Secretary of State office for the state where your marriage certificate was issued. Then fill the state specific apostille or authentication request form. Also, provide a self attested return envelope if you are submitting via email.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"step-3-ready-for-use\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Step 3: Ready for Use&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you receive the apostilled marriage certificate, it will be ready for use in India.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"apostille-process-by-state\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Apostille Process by State&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As stated above, one of the primary steps of getting a document apostilled is finding out the state that issued the certificate. State-issued vital records, including marriage certificate, are generally authenticated by the competent authority in the state where the document was issued.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>California:<\/strong> Apostille California marriage certificates are processed through the state\u2019s authorized authentication agency. So, make sure to get the proper certified copy of your document before seeking an apostille.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>New York:<\/strong> In New York state, additional authentication procedures may apply to marriage records depending upon the location of issuance. For instance, the procedure to be followed for marriage licenses in NYC can be different than for those from other areas in New York.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>New Jersey:<\/strong> New Jersey marriage certificates must go through the apostille or authentication process before being used for international purposes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Texas:<\/strong> Marriage certificate in Texas go through the prescribed process of authentication by the Secretary of State in Texas.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Florida:<\/strong> Florida marriage certificates follow the authentication process of the state itself.

What is more, Apostille California must be applied to the Secretary of State in California. Accordingly, the document must be apostilled by the competent authority in the state that issued it.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"processing-time-for-marriage-certificate-apostille-in-usa\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Processing Time for Marriage Certificate Apostille in USA&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A marriage certificate apostille in the USA can take anywhere between 1 to 6 weeks to process.
