An Apostille is a form of certification that authenticates your state documents for use in foreign countries. Pursuant to the Hague Convention, it allows the data on your documents and filings to be understood by the receiving country regardless of the official language of the issuing country.
We provide fast Apostille service for U.S. Corporate Documents issued from all 50 U.S. States. Because of the unique requirements of each State, we recommend that you mail to our office the original or a certified copy issued by the Secretary of State.
