I’ve seen it too many times to count. Someone approaches the counter at the Secretary of State, presents their documents to be authenticated and, they are rejected.  Improper notarization, Improper notarial verbiage, improper document format, wrong official signature.

The person, who usually has traveled a long distance, has to take their document, and get a correction if they can. This of course costs them time, money and aggravation. They usually needed the apostille done yesterday and now it’s going to be delayed even longer.

The frustration, is evident in the shock on their face, resigned slumping of the shoulders, exasperated reaction when they are told it cannot be corrected by the Secretary of State. I’ve seen it all. You can get the apostille  yourself, but why risk having your document rejected?

We do this EVERY DAY. We are experts.  You will get personal complimentary document review before you commit , so you will know if they are acceptable for authentication.  We will hand carry your documents for apostille in person  to the Secretary of State the SAME DAY WE RECEIVE THEM.

You will get complimentary photo confirmation, if you choose, of your apostilled documents when they are completed. We offer complimentary USPS Priority return with tracking.

Apostille Q and A

What is an Apostille?
An Apostille is a means by  which to authenticate documents for use in foreign countries

What is the difference between a certificate and an apostille?
None, anymore. As of Jan 1, 2017, The California Secretary of State only issues Apostilles.
If you are shopping around for the best service to get your apostille done, and the website  lists all  the Hague Convention countries, they are not up to date on the latest official procedures at the SOS. (sos link?)

What officials are authorized to sign my document before it is eligible to get and apostille?
The California Secretary of State authenticates signatures only on documents issued in the State of California signed by a notary public or the following public officials and their deputies:

    County Clerks or Recorders
    Court Administrators of the Superior Court
    Executive Clerks of the Superior Court
    Officers whose authority is not limited to any particular county
    Executive Officers of the Superior Court
    Judges of the Superior Court
    State Officials

Can’t I do this myself?
Sure, but why? If what you need is important enough to require an apostille, it’s important enough to have it done correctly the first time, on time and guaranteed by the professionals.
