Open official certificate service ↗Kansas certificate fees and delivery
Kansas provides certificates of good standing through BESS. The current LLC statute lists $7.50 for an LLC certificate of good standing; corporation and route-specific certificate amounts should be confirmed in the live order. Electronic delivery may be immediate after payment, while paper delivery takes longer. A certificate confirms SOS status, not tax compliance.
Certified copies of filed documents
Kansas's LLC statute lists $7.50 for each certified copy and $20.00 for a copy of an instrument on file, while corporation copy charges are governed by the corporation fee schedule. The current order should be used to identify document type, certification, page handling, and electronic or paper delivery; the reviewed material does not establish a single universal flat-plus-per-page formula.
Kansas apostilles and authentication
Kansas Secretary of State authentication and apostille services are accessed through the Secretary's business and authentication instructions at https://sos.ks.gov/other-services/authentication.html. Submit a certified Kansas record, destination-country information, and the current fee and delivery request. The reviewed business pages did not establish one universal 2026 entity-document price or turnaround; verify the 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.
