We notarize your documents and personally submit them to the California Secretary of State. Fast, reliable service in all Bay Area cities. We speak English, Russian & Farsi.
What Is an Apostille?
An apostille is an official authentication certificate issued by the California Secretary of State. It certifies that your California-issued document is genuine and valid for use in any of the 120+ countries that signed the Hague Convention — including Russia, Ukraine, Germany, UAE, India, Mexico, France, Brazil, and more.
Common reasons people need an apostille: working or studying abroad, international marriage, immigration paperwork, foreign business registration, or inheritance proceedings in another country.

Frequently Asked Questions
How quickly can you get an apostille in California?

How much does it cost to get an apostille in California?
The state fee is $20 per document. Our service fee covers notarization (when required), document preparation, and in-person submission to the Secretary of State. Call us for an exact quote.
Do all documents need to be notarized before apostille?
No — certified vital records from county recorders (birth, death, marriage certificates) go directly to the Secretary of State. Personal documents like diplomas, affidavits, and letters need notarization first. We’ll assess your documents when you call.
Can you apostille an FBI background check?
Yes. The FBI Identity History Summary (background check) must come directly from the FBI, then we submit it to the Secretary of State. We handle this regularly for clients relocating internationally.

All 120+ Hague Convention member countries. This includes Russia, Ukraine, Germany, France, Spain, Italy, UAE, India, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, and most of Europe, Latin America, and parts of Asia/Middle East.
