Are you in another country and need an apostille on your Single Status?
Have you contacted the local U.S. Embassy office for information on how to obtain a single status? For a list of U.S. Embassies and U.S. Consulates around the world, click here: US Embassy
A U.S. Embassy will typically refer to this document as:
- Affidavit of Civil Status
- Eligibility to Marry
- Single Status
Please note that you will need to make an appointment to meet with an official from the U.S. Embassy. A U.S. Federal notary public will need to be present to take your oath and notarize your signature on the document.
Once notarized, the next step is to mail in the original notarized copy with our Washington DC order forms to our Washington DC apostille office. Once we receive your documents at our office, the processing time is four business days.
If the U.S. Embassy is unable to assist you, you can contact the County Clerk in the County of your last residence (USA). County Clerk offices typically refer to this document as:
- No Record of Marriage
- Certificate of Freedom to Marry
- Certificate of No Impediment for Marriage
- Certificate of No Record – Marriage
- Affidavit of Single Status
- Affidavit of Marriageability
- Certificate of No Public Record
