California & Federal Apostille Questions — Answered Clearly

A California apostille is typically issued through the California Secretary of State for California-issued documents. A federal apostille is typically used for federally issued documents and goes through the U.S. Department of State. We help review your documents so the correct path is chosen before submission.
The answer usually depends on who issued the document. Birth certificates, marriage certificates, death certificates, school records, and many notarized California documents usually follow the state apostille route. Federally issued documents may require the federal apostille route. We can help you determine which service applies to your situation.
Our California apostille service is $225 for one document and $125 for each additional document after that. If notarization is needed before submission, notarization is available as an add-on for only $15 per signature when bundled with apostille service.
