Apostille & Authentication Assistance
Documents requiring international recognition need more than just a notary signature. We guide you through the apostille process to ensure your documents are properly authenticated for use abroad.
What is an Apostille?
An apostille is a certificate issued by a state authority that authenticates the origin of a public document. It's required for documents used in countries that are signatories to the Hague Apostille Convention—essentially making your notarized document legally recognized internationally.
The Process
Document Notarization
We notarize your document with our official notary seal and signature.
State Authentication
The notarized document is submitted to the New York Secretary of State for apostille certification.
International Recognition
Your document is now authenticated for use in over 140 countries that recognize the Hague Convention.
Common Apostille Documents
- Power of Attorney documents for international use
- Educational and professional credentials
- Corporate resolutions and business documents
- Wills, affidavits, and legal declarations
- Financial and medical documents requiring international recognition
Why Choose Our Guidance?
The apostille process can be complex and time-sensitive. Our expertise ensures your documents meet all requirements for international acceptance without delays.
- • Expert knowledge of NY Secretary of State requirements
- • Proper document preparation for international use
- • Guidance on processing timelines and submission procedures
Apostille Questions Answered
Do I need an apostille for all international documents?
Not all countries require apostilles. It depends on where your document will be used. If the destination country is a signatory to the Hague Apostille Convention (which covers over 140 countries), an apostille is the proper authentication method. We can advise you on whether your specific document needs apostille certification.
How long does the apostille process take?
Once we notarize your document, submission to the New York Secretary of State typically takes 1-2 weeks for processing. We'll guide you on timelines and can advise if expedited processing is necessary for your situation.
Can you handle the apostille submission for me?
We provide expert guidance on the apostille process and can advise you on proper submission procedures to the Secretary of State. We'll ensure your notarized documents are prepared correctly for authentication. Contact us to discuss your specific needs.
What documents can't be apostilled?
Generally, only documents issued by a government authority can be apostilled. Private documents (like contracts between individuals) typically cannot receive apostilles unless they've been notarized or authenticated by an official source first.
