Document Authentication

Included in apostille / legalization orders

Federal documents — FBI background checks, federal court orders, documents issued by U.S. federal agencies — require authentication through the U.S. Department of State before an apostille or embassy legalization can be issued. We handle this channel for you.

  • U.S. Dept. of State authentication for federal documents
  • Required step before apostille on FBI & federal records
  • Bundled into apostille and legalization orders
  • We confirm whether your document is state or federal

// how the apostille works

Three steps. About a week.

An apostille is an internationally recognized certificate that proves your U.S. document is genuine, so it's accepted in countries that belong to the Hague Convention. We do the running around for you.

[01]

Send us the document

Birth or marriage certificate, diploma, power of attorney, FBI background check, corporate paper — tell us the destination country and we confirm the correct channel.

[02]

We prepare & route it

State-issued documents go to the issuing state's Secretary of State; federal documents (FBI checks, federal records) go through the U.S. Department of State. Non-Hague countries get the full embassy legalization chain.

[03]

Authenticated & returned

You get the apostilled original back — typically in about a week for standard service, versus months doing it yourself. Rush and same-day options available.
