The Arizona Exemplification Certificate is an official document issued by the Arizona Secretary of State that certifies the authenticity of a public document issued in the state of Arizona. This document is usually used to verify the validity of a birth certificate, marriage license, or other official document within the state. There are two types of Arizona Exemplification Certificates: the Standard Certificate and the Apostle Certificate. The Standard Certificate is used for documents that do not need to be authenticated for international use, while the Apostle Certificate is used for documents that must be authenticated for use outside the United States. Both certificates include the signature of the Arizona Secretary of State and a raised seal of the state.
