State rules
Apostilles and notarization in Maryland
Apostilles for Maryland documents are issued by the Office of the Secretary of State in Annapolis.
The fee is 5 dollars per document. Walk-in service runs 9 am to 1 pm Monday through Friday with a limit of 15 documents per day, and mail requests need a stamped self-addressed envelope or prepaid express label.
Maryland has a distinctive extra step. A notarized document must first be certified by the Clerk of the Circuit Court in the county where the notary was commissioned before the Secretary of State will issue the apostille.
Vital records such as birth, death, marriage, and divorce documents can be certified when they bear the seal and authorized signature of the issuing department.
USCIS filings from Maryland need certified translations, not notarized ones. The requirement is a complete English translation with the translator's signed certification of accuracy and competence, with no notary involved.
A notarized translator statement bound for an apostille faces Maryland's two-stop chain. It must first be certified by the Clerk of the Circuit Court in the county where the notary is commissioned, and only then will the Secretary of State authenticate it.

Questions
Questions about translations for the Baltimore Field Office
- Will a translation from Eagle Translate be accepted here?
- Every certified translation we deliver carries the translator's signed statement that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate, which is the certification 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) requires for a foreign language document filed with USCIS. The officer reviewing your file decides on your evidence, and we do not speak for USCIS.
- Do I file the original document as well as the translation?
- Keep the original. A certified translation is filed alongside the foreign language document rather than in place of it, and it is common to be asked for both. The certificate names the source document it belongs to, so the two can be matched to each other.
- What happens to stamps, seals, and signatures?
- They are not dropped. Stamps, seals, signatures, and reference codes are described in bracketed form at the position they hold in the original, and the page structure is preserved, so a reviewer can set the translation beside the source document and follow it line by line.
- How is terminology from another country's legal system handled?
- A term with no exact United States equivalent is rendered to carry the meaning it has in the system that issued it, rather than swapped for an American term that would change what the document says. Where a term needs explaining, the explanation sits in brackets beside it instead of replacing it.
- A document has been asked for at short notice. How quickly can it be done?
- Certified delivery is 2 to 3 business days. Through 31 December 2026 the upgrade to Premium 1 to 2 business days delivery is applied automatically at the Certified price, so the faster option costs the same as the standard one.
- What does the certificate attest to?
- It attests to the accuracy of the translation. It states in those words that it does not attest to the authenticity of the source document or to the truth of its contents. That boundary is what makes it a certification a reviewer can rely on rather than a claim about your evidence.
