Fees & Administrative Procedures

Which fee combination is correct under the booklet’s schedule of fees?

A

Certificate of official character issued by the Secretary of State $1; authentication certificate $3

B

Certificate of official character issued by the Secretary of State $3; authentication certificate $1

C

Both are $2

D

Certificate of official character $10; authentication certificate $1

✓

Correct Answer

A. Certificate of official character issued by the Secretary of State $1; authentication certificate $3

AI Explanation

The fee trap here is a $1/$3 split. Executive Law §§132-133 and the booklet “Schedule of Fees” set a $1 fee for issuance of a certificate of official character and a $3 fee for an authentication certificate. For contrast, the duplicate identification card fee is $10, not part of this county-clerk authentication pair.
