State rules
Apostilles and notarization in Kansas
The Kansas Secretary of State issues apostilles and authentications for Kansas documents.
The fee is $10.00 for each document for which an apostille or authentication is needed.
Requests are made with Form DC, available in English and Spanish, submitted with the original document or a certified copy by mail or in person.
Documents that are not certified public records must be notarized by a Kansas notary, and if the document is in a foreign language the notarization itself must be in English.
USCIS itself does not require notarized translations for Kansas filings. It requires a certified translation, meaning the translator signs a statement attesting to competence and to the completeness and accuracy of the translation.
Notarization matters in Kansas mainly for the apostille chain. A document headed for an apostille that is not a certified public record must be notarized by a Kansas notary, with the notarial wording in English.

What Kansas customers translate most
Spanish is by far the most common non-English language spoken at home in Kansas.
Southwest Kansas cities tied to the meatpacking industry, including Dodge City, Garden City, and Liberal, have majority or near-majority Hispanic populations, and Wichita has a large and growing Spanish-speaking community.
Central and western Kansas have deep German-speaking roots, including Volga German settlement around Hays in Ellis County and Mennonite communities such as Newton and Goessel, which surface German-language family and church records for translation.

The credentialing agencies the Kansas board approves, such as TruMerit and International Education Evaluators, expect records that are not in English to be accompanied by English translations for the evaluation.
