Important

Requirements to Know

Understanding the requirements upfront helps prevent delays. Here are key things to know:

Notarization May Be Required

Some documents must be notarized before getting an apostille. We can handle the notarization as part of the process.

Original or Certified Copies

Many authorities require original documents or certified copies. Photocopies typically cannot be apostilled.

Varies by Destination

Requirements depend on both the document type and the destination country. We'll advise you on what's needed.

Pro Tips

Check with the destination country's embassy if you're unsure of requirements

Keep copies of everything before sending documents

Start the process early — international deadlines can be tight

Ask about translation requirements — some countries need certified translations

What We Do NOT Do

For transparency, here are things we cannot do:

We do not provide legal advice — For legal questions about your documents or their use abroad, please consult an attorney.

We do not issue apostilles directly — Apostilles are issued by government authorities (such as the Michigan Secretary of State). We facilitate the process on your behalf.

We do not guarantee processing times — Government processing is beyond our control, though we always submit promptly.
