How We Help With the Apostille Process

Birth Certificate Apostille (National)

If You Don’t Have Your Birth Certificate Yet

If you don’t yet have a certified copy of your birth certificate, we help identify the correct issuing authority and approved ordering method. Many clients obtain birth certificates through VitalChek or a state-authorized records provider. Once received, we verify eligibility and handle apostille processing from start to finish.

If You Already Have Your Birth Certificate

If you already have a certified birth certificate, we confirm that it meets apostille requirements for the issuing state. Once verified, we proceed with authentication and apostille processing on your behalf.
