Our Experience with eApostilles for Documents going to Countries Who Are Apart of the Hague Convention

Electronic Apostille has only been approved in a handful of States - with only one State being the most convenient at the moment. There's also a limitation on how many providers (2025) currently have access to eApostille. So, we are very excited to be amongst the first. Currently, because we want to ensure that we meet our clients' expectations, we have only partnered with the leading State.

When eApostille Works Best for Clients

If there is no requirement of what State your document is Apostilled in, which many documents do not have a requirement.
If you have a document that is going to a Country that is a member of the Hague Convention.
If your document is not an original vital record such as a birth or death certificate. We can, however, process Affidavits of Custodian of records for vital records if the receiving party accepts it.
If your document has not been previously notarized in any State or you are willing to have it re-notarized by our Notary who can process apostille.

Frequently Asked Questions Regarding Apostilles and Authentications

What is an Apostille?

An Apostille is a type of authentication certificate attached to a public document to verify its authenticity for use in another country. In most cases, when having a document Apostilled or Authenticated in the United States the document must be Notarized prior to submission to the States Secretary of State office (Commonwealth in VA) where the document was notarized. Each State sets its own processes, turnaround time, and fees when it comes to obtaining an Apostille.

How Fast Can a Document Be Apostilled?

How quickly can a document be Apostilled really depends on a variety of factors such as what type of document it is, what country it is going to, and the State in which you have the document Apostilled. Fact: In many cases, you may use States that accept electronic signatures, charge lesser fees, and have faster turnaround times. This is another reason we ask for more information regarding your Apostille needs prior to providing a quote.

Why Does it Matter What Type of Document I am Presenting for Apostille?

The type of document matters to a professional Apostille Agent because it will determine the course of action for that specific document to have the document authenticated. For example, an original Birth Certificate must always be Apostilled in the State that it was issued because it's a vital record- this is true of all vital records. A Federal Document on the other hand skips the State's office and heads straight to the Department of States Authentication Office. A translation of these types of documents are generally done at the State level.

Why Does it Matter What Country My Document is Going to After It is Appostilled?

The country in which your document is going to matters because of something called the Hague Apostille Convention. The Hague Apostille Convention is an international treaty that simplifies the process of authenticating and using public documents in other countries. As of 2025 there are 127 states that are a part of the Hague Convention. Sending documents to these countries is relatively easier and quicker than to countries that are not a part of the Hague Convention because documents going to non-Hague convention countries have a longer processing time as they must be sent to the Department of State for processing which has a much longer turn around time.

What is the Role of a Notary in an Apostille or Authentication?

The only real role of a Notary in an Apostille is to properly notarize your document. Notaries do not issue Apostilles. However, a Notary who facilitates Apostilles may help you piece together the processes your documents need to go through for a successful Apostille. Clients often turn to Unlimited Ink Notary to facilitate their Apostilles because of our vast network of Notaries in all 50 States and our strict vetting policies which require additional education for Notary Apostille Agents.

Fact: It is very important for consumers to choose a well-trained & well vetted Notary when preparing an Apostille. One little error on a document can have your document rejected. It is highly recommended not to use Notary services from places that do not specialize in Apostille. Apostille services can become very expensive in some cases with lots of documents- and one mishap can cause you to have to repeat the processes.
