State rules
Apostilles and notarization in North Carolina
Apostilles are issued by the North Carolina Secretary of State's Authentication Office at 2 South Salisbury Street in Raleigh. The office does not process apostilles online.
The fee is 10 dollars per original document, and 10 dollars for each duplicate.
The office authenticates North Carolina documents only. An out-of-state document must be apostilled by the state where it was issued.
A document in a language other than English must include a certified or notarized English translation, and the English translation must carry a wet original signature rather than a copied or digital one.
The office authenticates a wide range of records including birth and marriage certificates, diplomas, school transcripts, powers of attorney, and corporate documents, and returns documents by the prepaid envelope or courier label the requester provides.
USCIS itself does not require notarized translations for North Carolina filings. It requires a signed certification of accuracy from a qualified professional translator, so notarization matters only when a specific receiving authority asks for it.
For the North Carolina apostille chain, the Secretary of State requires the English translation of a foreign-language document to be certified or notarized and to bear an original wet signature.
Private documents such as powers of attorney enter the North Carolina apostille chain through notarization by a North Carolina notary before the Authentication Office will act on them.

Questions
Charlotte questions
- Which USCIS office handles Charlotte filings?
- The USCIS Charlotte Field Office at 201 Regency Executive Park Drive serves Charlotte ZIP codes for interviews, naturalization ceremonies, and in-person appointments. Most applications are filed online or mailed to a USCIS lockbox first, so always follow the address on your USCIS notice.
- Does USCIS require certified translations for documents filed from Charlotte?
- Yes. USCIS requires a complete English translation of any foreign language document, along with a signed certification from the translator confirming the translation is accurate and that the translator is competent. Eagle Translate delivers every order with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy prepared by a qualified professional translator. USCIS does not require notarization.
- Where are immigration court hearings held for Charlotte residents?
- The Charlotte Immigration Court is the only immigration court in North Carolina, so hearings for Charlotte residents take place there. Foreign language evidence submitted to the court needs an English translation with a signed certification. Confirm filing requirements with the court or your attorney.
- Is there a consulate in Charlotte that issues documents in Spanish?
- Honduras operates a consulate in Charlotte, and the Mexican and Guatemalan consulates general that serve the Carolinas are located in Raleigh. Birth certificates and civil registry documents issued in Spanish by these offices need a certified English translation before they go to USCIS or other US agencies.
- Can I use a certified translation for admission to UNC Charlotte or other area colleges?
- Charlotte area universities generally require academic records in English, so transcripts and diplomas issued in another language need an English translation. Formats and evaluation requirements vary by school and program, so confirm the exact requirements with the admissions office before you submit.
- How do I get a certified translation in Charlotte if Eagle Translate has no office here?
- Eagle Translate is 100 percent online, so there is no office to visit. Upload your document from anywhere in Charlotte, and a qualified professional translator completes your certified translation with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy in 2 to 3 business days at 24.95 dollars per page of 250 words.
