What is an apostille?

Hague Convention authentication for international documents

An apostille is a single-step certification issued under the 1961 Hague Convention verifying a document’s signature, seal, and signing official. Once authenticated, your original is recognized in any of the 129 contracting parties — no embassy attestation required.

For California-issued records, the California Secretary of State issues the seal. For federal documents like FBI background checks and USCIS records, the U.S. Department of State handles the certification. Our California apostille services hand-deliver both routes from one San Jose office.

Whether you need same day apostille San Jose for a flight tomorrow or standard turnaround for a long-term filing, you walk into one office, talk to one person, and walk out with a document recognized worldwide.

Common Questions

How same-day apostille works at our office

What is your same-day 6 PM guarantee policy?
If your document meets all CA Secretary of State submission requirements and is dropped off by 10 AM Monday-Friday with the rush fee paid, your apostille is ready for pickup by 6 PM the same business day. If we miss the 6 PM window for any reason within our control, your $450 rush fee is fully refunded — you keep the apostille at no extra charge. The guarantee does not apply to documents that fail CA SOS review, federal apostilles (FBI/USCIS take ~12 business days), state holidays, or events outside our control. We confirm eligibility before you commit.
How does same-day translation work in 3-5 hours?
Drop off your document with the translation request and we begin work the same morning. ATA-certified translation in English, Spanish, Vietnamese, Mandarin, Korean, Italian, German, French, Hindi, Arabic, Tagalog, and 90+ more languages is delivered within 3-5 hours for standard-length documents. The translation is then bundled with your apostille as a single authenticated package — one trip, one receipt. Rare languages or unusually long documents may take longer; we confirm timing at intake.
What’s the difference between an apostille and embassy legalization?
An apostille is a single-step authentication accepted by all 129 Hague Convention countries. Embassy legalization is the multi-step alternative for non-Hague countries like UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Vietnam — the document is first authenticated by the U.S. State Department, then attested by the foreign embassy. We handle both routes from our San Jose office.
Which document type do I need apostilled?
Each document type has its own dedicated page with full requirements and pricing: birth certificate, marriage certificate, divorce decree, FBI background check, diploma, power of attorney, and naturalization certificate. If you’re not sure which one you need, call us at (408) 766-3528 and we’ll guide you in English, Spanish, or Vietnamese.
