South Dakota apostille agent questions
How is this different from court runs?
The work is county clerk and apostille office runs, not courthouse filings. You can choose both on the form.
Do I need to be a notary?
No. Agents carry and submit documents; they never notarize or sign them.
Is there steady work in South Dakota?
That depends on demand; no volume is promised.
