Apostille: International Document Authentication

If you are working or studying outside the U.S., you may need your diploma or transcript authenticated through the Apostille process, which verifies the legality of documents exchanged between participating nations. It is very important to check with your employer or school first to confirm exactly what is required before ordering.

What May Be Required

  • Some schools or agencies may only require a notarized document with a college seal.
  • Others may need an official Apostille from New York State.
  • In many cases, an authenticated e-diploma is accepted instead of an Apostille diploma. E-diplomas can be authenticated online, eliminating the need for a paper Apostille diploma.

How to Order Authenticated Documents

Diplomas

Authenticated duplicate diplomas can be ordered online through the Michael Sutter Company.

Be sure to select "Notary Service Added" during checkout.

Transcripts

Authenticated transcripts can be ordered online through Parchment. Choose "Regular Request - Apostille Transcript" and select "Myself" as the recipient. Allow up to 2 weeks for processing after submitting your signed authorization form.

Cost: $17 (includes U.S. mail).

Completing the Apostille Process

Materials requested for the Apostille process will be notarized and authenticated as follows:

  • SUNY Oswego will notarize your documents.
  • Documents are then sent to the Oswego County Clerk for authentication.
  • You are responsible for submitting documents to the NYS Department of State.

Note: If your country does not accept state-level authentication, you may also need to contact the U.S. Department of State for further authentication.
