We can also handle Federal Apostilles with the United States Department of State.  We have drop-off services in Washington, DC that can expedite your apostille requests.  Unlike California, State Department apostilles are not available same day and take longer to process.  Our drop-off service does put your Federal requests to the "top of the stack" for fastest processing.  We do not offer expedited Federal requests for immediate travel purposes.

Who can get an apostille for California birth or death certificates?

The California Secretary of State can issue apostilles for signatures from:

• County clerks or their deputies
• County recorders or their deputies
• The State Registrar (California Department of Public Health)

If your certificate has a signature from a Health Officer or Local Registrar, you may need to obtain a certified copy from the county recorder or State of California Department of Public Health.

Does California issue different certificates for apostilles?

No. The California Secretary of State issues one type of apostille for all documents used abroad, regardless of the country.

Can I get an apostille for U.S. territories like Puerto Rico?

No. Apostilles are only for documents used outside the U.S. For U.S. territories, a notarization is usually enough.

Can non-English documents get an apostille?

Yes, as long as the notarization is in English, the California Secretary of State can issue an apostille, even if the document is in another language. 

How can I verify a California Apostille?

 Apostille Verification allows you to verify online whether an Authentication Certificate (Apostille) was issued within the last five years by the California Secretary of State’s office.
