Apostille & Legalization

Document Heroes, LLC specializes in document authentication and legalization. We can assist you with authentication/legalization of your documents, a hassle-free service you can trust to take this complex process of your hands. We can process documents from all 50 states.
An “Apostille” is a form of authentication issued to the documents for use in countries that participate in the Hague Convention of 1961. A list of countries that accept apostilles is provided by the US State Department. If the country of intended use does not participate in the Hague Convention, the process requires two mor steps: authentication at the U.S. State Department, follower by legalization at the Embassy or Consulate of the intended use country.
CONSULAR & EMBASSY LEGALIZATION
In addition to certification on the state level, documents required for use in non-member countries of The Hague Convention must be authenticated by the U.S. State Department before being sent to the Embassy or Consulate of the intended-use country for legalization.
Cost of legalization varies depending on the state in which the process takes place and your preference on delivery time (first class mail vs. expedite processing). Please contact us at 949-235-3309 or email info@documentheroes.com or interlanguageservices@gmail.com  with specific instructions, information or requirements pertaining to your documents.

The California Secretary of State provides authentication of county and state official’s signatures including the authentication of the signatures of California notaries public on documents to be used outside the US. Apostilles and Certifications only certify to the authenticity of the signature of the official who signed the document, the capacity in which that official acted, and when appropriate, the identity of the seal or stamp which the document bears.
