Fee
$10 per original apostille or authentication. Payable to "North Carolina Secretary of State" (NC SOS: Authentication fees; Obtaining a certificate). - Adoption-related duplicates requested at the same time are $5 each; other duplicates are $10.
Notarizing first
North Carolina's own remote notarization isn't operational yet (see state status), so NC notarizations are typically done in person.
Rather not do it yourself?
Apostille services handle notarization, county steps and state filing for a fee: apostille service. If your document first needs notarizing, online options: Notarize · OneNotary · NotaryLive.
Confirm with the receiving country whether it needs an apostille or an authentication certificate. Non-Hague countries need authentication instead. See what is an apostille.
