What is an apostille?
An apostille is a certificate that verifies a U.S.-issued document for use in a country that is part of the Hague Apostille Convention.

 

Do you handle documents from all 50 states?
Yes. We provide nationwide mail-in apostille service for documents issued in all 50 U.S. states and Washington, D.C.

 

Do I need an original, a certified copy, or a notarized copy?
That depends on the document type, the issuing state, and the destination country. We review your document first and confirm exactly what is needed before you mail anything.

 

How long does it take?
Processing time varies by state, document type, current government workload, and shipping method. After reviewing your document, we can give you a more accurate estimate before submission.

 

How much does it cost?
The total cost depends on the number of documents, the applicable state fee, your shipping choice, and any optional services such as expedited service, document retrieval, or translation. We confirm total pricing before submission.

 

What if my destination country does not use an apostille?
If the destination country is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention, authentication or legalization may be required instead. We confirm the correct route before submission.

 

Are my original documents handled securely?
Yes. Documents are handled carefully throughout the process, and return shipping includes tracking.

 

How do I get started?
Text or email a clear photo or scan of your document, along with the issuing state, document type, and destination country. We will confirm the correct next step before you mail anything.
