I am asking this question for my friend who got married in Guam with a German. When they brought the marriage certificate issued by Guam to Germany, the German government doesn't honor the certificate unless it has an "apostille" stamped. I think every other states except Guam will have the "apostille" stamped on the marriage certificate. In their case, where can they bring their certificate to get stamped?
Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Except that this also what we thought and then they rejected it since our marriage license was also issued in Guam. The rejection letter ( we lost nearly 2 weeks doing this:( says it needs to be certified by the secretary of state or commonwealth of each state. Now looking to find out who that may be.
