CLEAR ANSWERS BEFORE YOU START
Frequently Asked Questions
Every document is different. These answers explain the most common situations; a document review confirms the correct route for your case.
VIEW ALL FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS →What documents can be apostilled?+
Common documents include birth and marriage certificates, diplomas and transcripts, powers of attorney, corporate records, court documents and eligible FBI Identity History Summaries. The correct process depends on who issued the document and where it will be used.
How long does an apostille take in Florida?+
Processing time depends on the document, issuing authority and selected service. Express options may be available for eligible Florida documents, while federal and out-of-state documents follow different timelines.
Do I need the original document?+
Some documents require an original or certified copy, while others may use a properly notarized copy. We review the document type before giving submission instructions.
Can you help if I am outside Florida?+
Yes. Clients can request a review, receive mail-in instructions and select an available trackable return-shipping option.
Is an apostille the same as a certified translation?+
No. An apostille authenticates a public document; a certified translation renders its content in another language. Some international procedures require both services.
