State rules
Apostilles and notarization in Nevada
The Nevada Secretary of State issues apostilles and certifications for Nevada documents. Requests are processed through the Carson City office at 401 North Carson Street.
The state fee is 20 dollars per apostille or certification, with optional expedite fees charged in addition to the base fee.
A private document must be notarized by a Nevada notary public before it can receive a Nevada apostille, and public records must be original or certified copies issued by a Nevada agency. The original document is submitted with a completed Apostille/Certification Order Form that names the destination country.
Nevada issues an apostille for countries in the Hague Apostille Convention and a certification for non-Hague destinations, which is why the order form asks for the country where the document will be used.
For USCIS filings from Nevada, the agency requires a certified translation with the translator's signed certification of accuracy and competence. USCIS does not require the translation to be notarized.
When a Nevada receiving office asks for a notarized translation, the notary notarizes the translator's signature on the certification statement. The notary verifies identity, not the accuracy of the translation.
A translation headed for a Nevada apostille must first be notarized by a Nevada notary, because the Secretary of State authenticates the notary's signature, not the translation itself.

Questions
Nevada questions
- Which USCIS office serves Nevada?
- Nevada has two USCIS field offices. The Las Vegas Field Office serves southern Nevada, including Clark, Nye, Lincoln, and Esmeralda counties, and the Reno Field Office serves the northern counties, including Washoe and Carson City. Both are appointment only through the USCIS Contact Center.
- Is there an immigration court in Nevada?
- Yes. The Las Vegas Immigration Court at 110 North City Parkway is the only immigration court in Nevada. Documents in a language other than English filed in immigration court must include a certified English translation from a qualified professional translator.
- Who issues apostilles in Nevada?
- The Nevada Secretary of State issues apostilles from its Carson City office at 401 North Carson Street. The fee is 20 dollars per apostille, and the document must be a Nevada public record or notarized by a Nevada notary before submission.
- Does USCIS in Las Vegas require notarized translations?
- No. USCIS requires a certified translation, meaning the translator signs a statement attesting the translation is complete and accurate and that they are competent to translate. Notarization is only needed when a different receiving office, such as a court or the apostille office, specifically asks for it, so confirm with the office receiving your documents.
- Will UNLV or the University of Nevada, Reno accept my translated transcripts?
- Nevada universities generally ask international applicants for official transcripts along with certified English translations. Each admissions office sets its own document rules, so confirm the exact requirements with the university before you order.
- I am a foreign educated nurse moving to Nevada. What translations do I need?
- The Nevada State Board of Nursing requires transcripts in English and accepts credential evaluations from CGFNS, IERF, or Josef Silny and Associates. The board's guidance says academic records should be translated by the educational institution attended, so check the board's current checklist and your evaluator's translation rules before ordering a translation.
