Utah Lt. Governor Spencer J. Cox is pleased to announce a reduction in fees for authenticating adoption paperwork used for overseas adoptions.
The fees have been reduced from $15.00 per document to $10.00 per document. The change aims to ease some of the financial burdens for Utah parents working to complete the often costly and complicated steps to adopt a child from abroad.
“We understand that fees on these documents add up quickly,” Lt. Governor Cox said. “I hope this change will make the process even just a little easier on Utah families.”
Parents looking for more information on these costs for authenticating documents can visit the Lt. Governor’s Authentications website here or contact the office at 801-538-1041.
The reduced fees went into effect on July 1, 2018.
