Start with the right version of the document.

    Recently issued, if your destination asks

    Some consulates want a copy issued in the last few months. We check that before you order.

05FAQ

Questions.

Can I apostille a birth certificate from another state?

Yes. A birth certificate from another state is apostilled by that state; we handle it for $190 standard. Texas birth certificates can be expedited.

Do I need a translation?

Usually, for non-English-speaking countries. We confirm whether it is done before or after the apostille. See certified translation.

Can you get the certified copy for me?

Yes, for Missouri and Kansas births. We request it, apostille it and ship it in one order.

Do you handle adoption document apostilles?

Yes. International adoption files usually include birth certificates, home studies, court orders and notarized statements. We apostille each one, or legalize them for non-Hague countries.
