Divorce Certificate Apostille in Orlando.

A Florida divorce decree is a court record: the Clerk of Court in the county where the divorce was granted certifies a copy of the final judgment, and the Department of State apostilles that certification ($20 state fee). A paper copy with the clerk's original stamp and seal, or the clerk's official e-certification, both work. The copy from your final hearing or your attorney's file doesn't.

Divorces granted in Orange County are certified by the Orange County Clerk of Courts. Florida restricts online access to family records, so you may need to register with the clerk's portal or call the records office with both names and the year. Ask for every page the foreign office wants — settlement agreement and parenting plan included — as one certified copy.

Order online from Orlando and drop the envelope at any FedEx, or meet our Tampa team by appointment — about 90 miles away. We file it in person in Tallahassee and return it in 5–7 business days: $220 all-in, $380 for two, $160 each for three or more.

Why Orlando residents need a divorce certificate apostille.

Every week we help dozens of Orange County residents authenticate their documents for use abroad. These are the most common reasons divorce certificate apostille services are requested.

Foreign Remarriage

Marrying again in another country? Most foreign governments require an apostilled prior divorce decree before issuing a marriage license. Italy, Spain, Portugal, Mexico, the Caribbean — all standard requirements.

Foreign Citizenship Applications

Italian, Polish, and other ancestral citizenship applications sometimes require apostilled divorce decrees in the line of descent — particularly where ancestor relationships or name changes affect the application.

International Custody & Support

Florida divorce judgments that include child custody, child support, or visitation orders need to be apostilled if you're seeking foreign enforcement or recognition of those orders.

Foreign Property Division

When the Florida divorce judgment addressed property located abroad (real estate, bank accounts, business interests), the apostilled judgment is required to enforce or record that division in the foreign jurisdiction.

Foreign Inheritance Matters

Foreign probate proceedings sometimes require apostilled divorce decrees to clarify marital status at the time of an inheritance event.

Foreign Bank & Title Records

Foreign banks and property title registries occasionally request apostilled divorce decrees to update records when an account or title holder's marital status has changed.

Common questions.

From the Clerk of Court in the county where the divorce was finalized. For divorces finalized in Orange County, that's the Orange County Clerk of Courts. Many clerks offer online ordering through their official county portal. Fees are mostly set by statute — usually a few dollars per document.
The Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage is the actual court order from the Clerk of Court that ends the marriage. The "Divorce Decree" (or Divorce Certificate) is sometimes used to refer to a summary record from the Florida Bureau of Vital Statistics. For most foreign uses, you want the certified Final Judgment from the Clerk of Court — that's the document foreign governments and consulates expect.
No — we only apostille Florida-issued documents. If your divorce was finalized in another state, you'll need to use that state's apostille service. The decree must be authenticated by the state that issued it.
It depends on what's sealed. If the entire judgment is under seal, you'll need to petition the court to unseal it before apostille is possible. If only certain exhibits or attachments are sealed, the main judgment can usually still be apostilled. Talk to your Florida attorney first.
Sometimes — depends on the receiving institution. Foreign remarriage applications often want both: the prior marriage certificate (showing the marriage existed) and the divorce decree (showing it ended). Italian citizenship applications sometimes also request both. Bundle pricing applies: $380 for 2 documents.
5–7 business days from when we receive your certified divorce decree. For Orlando residents, online order is the most convenient — we review your documents, then FedEx emails you a QR code, you drop your envelope at any FedEx, and we handle the rest.
From the Orange County Clerk of Courts, if the divorce was granted in Orange County — online, in person or by mail, at mostly statutory fees. Ask for a certified copy of the final judgment for an apostille. A divorce granted in another county comes from that county's clerk.
$220 per document, all-in — the Florida state fee, a review before filing, in-person filing in Tallahassee and U.S. return shipping. $380 for two documents, $160 each for three or more, the same online or by appointment.
