A sealing apparatus is provided that enables a sealing agent bottle to be replaced with input of an inappropriate sealing agent prevented, and a cover slip, a sealing agent, and a clearing agent appropriately combined. A sealing apparatus (10) includes a starting bath (22) in which a clearing agent is stored and a slide glass (12) on which a specimen before the sealing is attached is dipped in the clearing agent, a sealing agent bottle (44) that stores a sealing agent dispensed onto the slide glass (12) taken out from the starting bath (22), and includes a recording unit (62) in which at least a type of the sealing agent is recorded, a storage unit (68) storing information on compatibility of the clearing agent with respect to a cover slip (26) and the sealing agent currently applied, and a control unit (66) that performs, when the sealing agent bottle (44) is replaced, control of determining the compatibility of the sealing agent read from the recording unit (62) with respect to the cover slip (26) and the clearing agent stored in the storage unit (68), and at least when the result of the determination is incompatible, making a notification unit (20) issue a notification indicating the incompatibility.
