If you're planning to use a U.S. document in another country—whether it's for business, education, adoption, or legal matters—you may need an apostille.

💼 What Is an Apostille?

An apostille is an official certificate issued by the Texas Secretary of State that authenticates the signature and seal on public documents so they are legally recognized in foreign countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention.

Whether you're sending a birth certificate to Spain, a diploma to South Korea, or a power of attorney to Mexico, you'll likely need an apostille to validate your document overseas.

📍 Why Apostille Services Are Different in Texas

Texas doesn’t issue apostilles locally in Dallas or Fort Worth—the only office that can do so is the Texas Secretary of State in Austin. That means your document must be sent to Austin to be apostilled.

That’s where I come in.

🚀 Expedited Apostille Services (DFW to Austin & Back)

Need your apostille fast? I offer expedited walk-in apostille services:

• I review and notarize your documents (if needed)

• I overnight them to Austin

• My trusted courier hand-delivers them to the Secretary of State’s window

• Once processed, your apostilled documents are overnighted back to you within 2–3 business days

This is the fastest and most secure way to get your Texas apostille—perfect for urgent travel, deadlines, or international transactions.

📬 Standard Mailed Apostille Services

Not in a rush? I also offer standard mailed apostille services:

• Documents are reviewed and notarized (if required)

• Mailed to the Secretary of State in Austin via USPS or courier

• Processed and mailed back to you upon completion

Mailed processing typically takes 2–3 weeks, depending on Austin’s volume. This option is budget-friendly and ideal for non-urgent situations.
