Mississippi Certificate of Existence or Authorization is $25.00 for corporations under the statutory schedule; LLC pricing is shown by the live document order. Online ordering can provide electronic delivery, while paper takes longer. The certificate confirms SOS status, not tax clearance.
Certified copies of filed documents
Mississippi corporation certified copies cost $1.00 per page plus $10.00 certification under the statutory schedule. LLC and document-order charges are entity-specific in the current portal. The request should identify plain versus certified record and include any delivery or electronic charge.
Mississippi apostilles and authentication
Mississippi apostilles/authentications are handled by the Secretary of State's Business Services/Notary offices; start at https://www.sos.ms.gov/notaries. Submit a certified Mississippi record and destination-country information. The reviewed 2026 business pages did not establish one universal entity-document apostille fee or turnaround; verify live instructions.
Which document should you order?
- Proof of current registry standing
- Ask for the state’s certificate of status, existence, or good standing. It is different from a public search result and may not establish tax clearance.
- Proof of what was filed
- Order a certified copy of the specific formation document, amendment, or other filing requested.
- A document for use abroad
- Ask the receiving authority whether it requires an apostille or another form of authentication, and whether it accepts electronic documents.
Check the record before ordering
Confirm the legal name, entity number, and recipient’s required issue date. A missed report or other delinquency may need to be resolved before a certificate can be issued.
