Need a document issued in Colorado apostilled for use overseas? You don’t have to be in Colorado — or visit us in California — to get it done. Orange County Apostille handles Colorado documents by mail for clients in Denver, Colorado Springs, and Aurora, and everywhere else in the state. Send your documents in and we manage the entire authentication process.
How it works for Colorado: A Colorado document is apostilled by the Colorado Secretary of State. We prepare and submit your document to that office for you, so you never have to navigate the process yourself.

How mail-in Colorado apostille works

- Mail your Colorado documents to us (or upload them where allowed).

- We return your apostilled documents by tracked, secure shipping to any address, in the U.S. or abroad.
Federal documents from Colorado
Some documents issued to Colorado residents are federal — such as FBI background checks, IRS Form 6166, and documents signed by a U.S. federal official. These are not apostilled by the Colorado Secretary of State; they’re authenticated by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. We handle those too. See our federal apostille page.
Going to a non-Hague country?
If your Colorado document is destined for a country that isn’t part of the Hague Apostille Convention, it needs full embassy or consulate legalization rather than an apostille. We manage that multi-step process from start to finish.
