The Secretary of State is in Little Rock: what that means
Arkansas apostilles are issued only by the Secretary of State, and its Business and Commercial Services office sits in the Victory Building at 1401 W. Capitol Avenue, Suite 250. The request form lets you choose to pick up your documents instead of having them mailed back, which is practical when you already live in the city. The Elections Division at the State Capitol handles papers bearing an elected official’s seal, such as marriage licenses and divorce decrees.
