You don't have to pay for an urgent service to get your apostille, you can do it yourself. The State of Texas processes all documents on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Apostille certificate only certifies the capacity of the person who signed the public document and the authenticity of the signature. An apostille document does not certify the content of the public document to which it refers.

Documents issued by another state cannot be apostilled by the state of Texas. They must be apostilled from the same issuing country.

Documents issued by the federal government to Texas residents or businesses must obtain the apostille from the U.S. UU. An apostille may be placed on original documents issued in the state of Texas that bear the official signature and seal of a valid mandatory notary, current state registrar, probate judge, or document issued by one of the departments of the state of Texas.

The Apostille Austin Texas service may only be issued in the state of Texas by the Texas Secretary of State's Office. We recommend that you call the Apostille Office and describe your document to ensure that you are ready for the apostille.
