Open official certificate service ↗Pennsylvania certificate fees and delivery
Pennsylvania certificates of subsistence/good standing are ordered through the Department's business portal; the current fee is document-specific. Electronic delivery is faster than paper and confirms Department status, not tax clearance.
Certified copies of filed documents
Pennsylvania certified copies use document-specific Department charges; no universal flat-plus-page 2026 formula was exposed in the reviewed extract. Use the live order for pages, certification, and delivery.
Pennsylvania apostilles and authentication
Pennsylvania apostilles/authentications are handled by the Department of State; start at https://www.pa.gov/agencies/dos/programs/notaries/apostilles. Submit a certified Pennsylvania record, destination-country information, and verify current fee/address/timing.
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.
