Are you the “Do it Yourself” type and would rather handle the process on your own and without any help? We totally get that! Our website caters to those individuals who would rather not sweat the small stuff and focus on more important tasks.
At International Apostille, we take the guesswork out of obtaining an apostille on your documents. We can apostille documents issued from all 50 States and the District of Columbia (Washington DC).
Some of our competitors will spend a lot of money advertising their services online and then provide a “Do it Yourself” section full of confusing and inaccurate information hoping that you would give up and just hand over the business to them. We don’t create “Do-It-Yourself” websites or compare our services with the cost of doing it on your own.
We are experts in obtaining an apostille on your documents. We can provide you the most up-to-date information by phone, e-mail, and online chat. Because things can change at any moment, some of the information on our website may become temporarily inaccurate. For example, during the Covid-19 crises of 2020, some states increased their processing time with little to no notice. For example, the California Secretary of State’s office in Los Angeles closed their offices for several weeks and later reopened them with limited hours and staff. This caused our processing time to increase overnight from an estimated one business day to five business days.
What is an apostille?
In a Nutshell, an apostille is a certificate issued by the Secretary of State that authenticates the official who has signed your documents. You can learn more here: What is an apostille. We also provide an example of state apostilles on our website.
Did you know that on average 60%-70% of notarized documents are rejected by the Secretary of State’s office?
The most common reasons are:
- No notary seal or poorly stamped seal on the document
- The notary forgot the sign the document
- The notary’s signature is not on file with the Secretary of State’s office
- The notary has incorrectly signed the document (Example: Signature has changed)
- Incorrect notarial wording (Acknowledgment or Jurat)
- The notary’s commission has expired or invalid
- Notary has copy certified a document incorrectly
Did you know that a handful of states require documents to be processed through the County Clerk’s office before they can receive the apostille from the Secretary of State?
While some of our competitors pretend to be nice only to hope that they confuse you enough to win your business, we’ll provide you the most up-to-date information without the trickery so you can make the best informed decision working with professionals.
