Real reviews from real clients across Broward County — small business owners, immigration applicants, and families navigating international document needs.
“Needed a marriage certificate apostilled for use in Italy and they handled it start to finish. Picked up the document from my house in Coral Springs, filed it, and dropped off the apostilled original a few days later. Couldn’t have been easier.”
“FDLE background check apostille for my work visa to Brazil. They walked me through exactly what I needed, ordered the right version of the report, and the apostille came back faster than I expected. Professional from start to finish.”
“We adopted internationally and needed a stack of documents apostilled fast. They handled six different documents in one coordinated batch — everything came back correct the first time. Saved us a trip to Tallahassee and a lot of stress.”
We file in person at the Florida Department of State, so you don’t have to.

Standard turnaround is 5 business days from the time we pick up your documents to the moment they’re ready for office pickup. The actual filing at the Florida Department of State is typically completed in 2–3 business days; the remaining time covers pickup, prep, return travel, and quality control.
Any Florida-issued or Florida-notarized document is eligible. Common categories include vital records (birth, marriage, death, divorce), education documents (diplomas and transcripts), background checks (FDLE, local police, court records), and notarized legal documents (power of attorney, affidavits, authorization letters, travel consent).
If your document was issued by another state or by a federal agency (FBI background check, USCIS records, IRS letters), it cannot be apostilled by Florida — it needs to be authenticated by the originating state or by the U.S. Department of State.
For vital records (birth, marriage, death, divorce), Florida requires a certified copy issued by the Florida Department of Health or the Clerk of Court — plain photocopies are not eligible. If you have the original certificate, we can apostille that. If you only have a photocopy, we can help you order a certified copy first.
For notarized documents (power of attorney, affidavits), we apostille the document with the original notary signature and seal. If your document hasn’t been notarized yet, we can notarize it on the spot.
Call us or submit a request form, and we’ll confirm a pickup window within one business hour. Our courier comes to your home, office, hospital, or any location in Broward County, collects your documents, and provides a written receipt. There’s no extra fee for mobile pickup — it’s the same $190 per document as an office visit.
Yes — office visits are by appointment at 300 SE 2nd St, Suite 600 in downtown Fort Lauderdale. Call (754) 354-7979 and we’ll usually have a same-day or next-day slot ready. Hours: Monday–Friday 9:00 AM–5:00 PM, Saturday 12:00 PM–5:00 PM, closed Sunday.
We accept credit card, debit card, Zelle, and cash. Payment is collected upfront when we confirm your appointment by phone — you’ll know the exact total before any work begins, with no surprise charges later. The online request form itself doesn’t collect any payment information; that’s handled securely by phone.
Yes. We’re Florida-commissioned notaries and can notarize your power of attorney, affidavit, authorization letter, or travel consent document during pickup. Notarization is a separate service starting at $40 (travel fees may apply for mobile pickup); we’ll quote the total cost upfront so there are no surprises.
Rejections are rare because we pre-screen every document before filing — we check that vital records are certified copies, that notarizations are current and complete, and that the document type qualifies. If a document is rejected for a reason on our end (filing error, document mishandling), we re-file at no additional cost.
If the rejection is because of an issue with the underlying document (e.g., the certified copy is expired or the notarization is incomplete), we’ll explain what needs to be corrected and re-file once it’s ready.
All 125+ countries that are members of the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention. This includes most of Europe, Latin America, Asia, and Oceania. For non-Hague countries (China, UAE, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, and others), the document needs additional authentication through the U.S. Department of State and the destination country’s consulate — that’s a separate process outside our state-level service.
Fill out the form and we’ll call you back within one business hour to confirm your pickup or appointment, walk you through pricing, and lock in your timeline.
