Little Rock, Arkansas document errands: printing, fax, notary, passports and certified copies (2026)

Where to print, fax, notarize, apply for a passport and get certified copies in Little Rock, Arkansas, using only official and provider pages. Each fact links to its source. Some facts are statewide or national rather than local. We label those.

Not affiliated, not legal advice. Errand Desk isn't affiliated with the City of Little Rock, the Central Arkansas Library System, Pulaski County, the Pulaski Circuit/County Clerk, the Arkansas Department of Health, the Arkansas Secretary of State, the State of Arkansas, USPS, The UPS Store or the U.S. Department of State. This is general information, not legal advice. Prices and hours change; check the linked source before you go.

Short version: the Central Arkansas Library System (CALS) gives you your first ten printed pages free each day, then charges 10¢ a page in black and white ^[1], and its notary service is free for library users ^[2]. The passport locator lists 1 facility in Little Rock, the Main Post Office ^[3]. A birth certificate is $12 from the Arkansas Department of Health, whose statewide Vital Records office is in Little Rock ^[4], and a Pulaski County marriage license is $60 ^[5]. Little Rock is in Pulaski County ^[6].

Printing, copying, scanning and fax

Central Arkansas Library System (CALS)

Printing: the first ten pages you print each day are free, in black and white or color. After that, it's 10¢ a page for black and white and 50¢ a page for color; a double-sided page counts as two pages ^[1][7].
Mobile printing: CALS uses Princh for printing from your phone or laptop at 14 locations; staff release the print job at the desk. CALS says it doesn't use Princh to scan or copy ^[7].
Fax, copies and scanning: we didn't find fax, copy or scan prices on the CALS pages we checked. Its fee policy says the library may charge fax, photocopying and printing fees ^[8]. Call the branch before you go.
Main Library: 100 South Rock Street, Little Rock, AR 72201; 501-918-3000. The hours listed for the week we checked were Monday–Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m., closed Sunday ^[9]. Parking in the lot across Rock St. and the garage north of the library is free for the first 30 minutes, then $2.00 per hour ^[9]; the CALS FAQ says front-desk staff can validate two hours ^[1].

The UPS Store: it lists 4 locations in Little Rock: 300 S Rodney Parham, #1, (501) 225-3005; 1818 N Taylor Street, (501) 666-2338; 11610 Pleasant Ridge Rd, Ste. 103, (501) 478-6100; and 17200 Chenal Pkwy, Ste. 300, (501) 821-6300. Its city page says they offer packing, shipping, printing, shredding, notarizing, faxing and mailbox services ^[10]. We didn't find prices on the store pages; The UPS Store's site says products, services, prices and hours may vary by location ^[11].
Where the UPS stores are: the Census Geocoder places all four inside Little Rock city ^[12].

See printing prices and fax prices.

Notary in Little Rock

Library (free): CALS offers free notary service for library users, and most locations have at least one notary. Notary availability isn't guaranteed, so call the branch first. Bring a valid picture ID and your own witnesses if you need them. CALS notaries don't do I-9 forms, and there's a limit of five documents per person per day. Questions: 501-918-3000 ^[2].
The UPS Store: its Little Rock page lists notarizing ^[10].
Fees (statewide): Arkansas sets no dollar amount. The Secretary of State's 2025 Notary Handbook says Arkansas notaries "are not required to charge for their services"; if a notary does charge, the amount must be reasonable and disclosed to and agreed upon by both you and the notary before the notarial act, citing A.C.A. § 21-6-309. The same rule applies to electronic notaries ^[13].
ID and records (statewide): the handbook says Arkansas law doesn't specify "acceptable" identification and recommends a current ID card with the signer's picture and signature. The law doesn't require notaries to keep a journal, though the handbook recommends one ^[13].

Passports in Little Rock

The U.S. Department of State's Passport Acceptance Facility Locator data lists 1 facility in Little Rock, with photos on site. The Census Geocoder places it inside Little Rock city ^[3][12]:

Certified copies of marriage and divorce records are $10 per copy ^[17][18]. If no record is found, state law requires ADH to keep the first-copy fee ($12 for births, $10 for the others) as a search fee ^[4][16][17].
Online and phone (statewide): orders through ADH's online vendor add a $5.00 processing fee and a $1.85 identity verification fee, plus any expedited shipping; ADH says online birth certificate orders take 7–14 business days plus shipping. Phone orders: (866) 209-9482 ^[4][17].

You can also order a birth certificate at a local health unit ^[4]. Walk-in payment: cash, credit or debit card, or a check or money order to the Arkansas Department of Health (no temporary checks) ^[4].
By mail (statewide): send the application, a check or money order (no cash) and a copy of acceptable ID to ADH Vital Records, Slot 44, 4815 West Markham Street, Little Rock, AR 72205; allow 10–14 days plus mail time ^[4].

Recorded documents: Pulaski Circuit/County Clerk

Recording: $15 for the first page and $5 for each additional page; pay in person by card, money order, cash or check, or by card online ^[24]. The county's 2019 Real Estate fee schedule lists the same amounts and cites A.C.A. § 21-6-306 ^[25].
Photo ID for deeds: the clerk says that under Act 752, from August 5, 2025, anyone filing a deed must have a photo ID; certain professionals and government entities are exempt ^[24].
New records system: the clerk says it moved to a new land records system on October 5, 2026 (past), and that free online recording is temporarily unavailable; it points e-filers to approved e-recording vendors ^[24].
Copies: the clerk's Misc. Fee Schedule, dated May 20, 2019 and marked as a partial list, lists copies at $0.03 a page in black and white and $0.20 in color, and certified or authenticated copies at $5.00 per seal ^[26].

Certified copies: $5.00, picked up in person or mailed (not emailed). Pay online or mail a check or money order with the names of the parties and a description of the document ^[27].
Statewide: we didn't find a statewide circuit court copy fee schedule; this is the Pulaski clerk's own.

Apostilles (statewide)

Fee: the Arkansas Secretary of State charges $10 per document for an apostille and $5 per document for a certification. It lists no expedite fee and says it strives to process requests within 24–48 hours of receipt ^[28]. A 4% convenience fee is added to credit and debit card payments ^[29].
Where to send it (two offices, both in Little Rock): documents with an elected official's seal, such as marriage licenses, divorce decrees and judgments, go to the Elections Division, State Capitol, Room 026, (501) 682-5070 or (800) 482-1127. State agency documents and notarized documents, such as diplomas, transcripts and birth, marriage and death certificates, go to the Business & Commercial Services Division, 1401 West Capitol Ave., Suite 250 (one block east of the Capitol), (501) 682-3409 or (888) 233-0325. You can submit by mail or in person, and either office can help if you have both kinds ^[28].
Which copy: a notarized photocopy of a birth certificate isn't accepted; it must be the original or a certified copy from ADH Vital Records. Immigration, citizenship and U.S. Department of State documents can't be apostilled by the state ^[28].
Payment and return: cash, check or money order to the Arkansas Secretary of State; Business & Commercial Services also takes cards, but the Elections Division doesn't. You don't need a return envelope unless you want express return, which needs a prepaid air bill ^[28].
