Open official certificate service ↗New Jersey certificate fees and delivery
New Jersey corporate and LP standing certificate is $25.00; LLC short-form standing certificate is $50.00 and long-form standing certificate is $100.00. Online ordering can provide electronic delivery; mailed requests take longer. A standing certificate is not a tax-clearance certificate.
Certified copies of filed documents
New Jersey certified copies and document requests use entity-specific DORES charges; the reviewed fee page did not establish one universal flat-plus-per-page formula. Use the Copies of Entities service for the exact document, certification, page, and delivery amount.
New Jersey apostilles and authentication
New Jersey apostilles/authentications are handled through the Department of the Treasury/Secretary of State authentication services; start at https://www.nj.gov/treasury/revenue/apostilles.shtml. Submit a certified New Jersey record, destination-country information, and the current fee and delivery request. Verify the live 2026 turnaround.
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.
