Apostille Service That Comes to You: At Home, At Our Office, or Even at a Coffee Shop!
When life demands certified documents for use abroad, you don’t have time to figure out the complicated maze of the apostille process. That’s why at Orange County Apostille, we’ve made document authentication easy, flexible, and convenient. Whether you prefer the comfort of your own home, the professionalism of our office, or the casual setting of a coffee shop, we come to you—on your terms and schedule.
Why Apostille Services Matter
In today’s global society, official documents often need to cross borders. Whether you’re relocating for work, getting married abroad, applying for dual citizenship, or conducting international business, there’s a good chance you’ll need to authenticate your documents through an apostille. This ensures they’re legally recognized in foreign countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention.
Examples of documents that often need apostilles include:
- Birth certificates
- Marriage certificates
- Death certificates
- FBI background checks
- Power of attorney documents
- School diplomas and transcripts
- Corporate documents
- Adoption paperwork
- Medical records
- Immigration records
What Is an Apostille?
An apostille is a type of certification issued by the California Secretary of State or the U.S. Department of State. It verifies that a public document’s seal and signature are legitimate so that it can be recognized internationally.
Apostilles are only valid for use in countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention of 1961, which includes over 125 countries like Mexico, Spain, the Philippines, Brazil, Italy, and South Korea.
For non-member countries, a more complex authentication and legalization process is required through consulates and embassies—but don’t worry, we can help with that too.

Common Scenarios We Handle Every Day
Here are some real-life examples of how our flexible apostille service works for different clients across Southern California:
✅ Case 1: Apostille for Marriage Abroad – At Home Visit
Maria and Daniel were planning to get married in Spain. They needed apostilles for their birth certificates and single status affidavits. With tight schedules and two kids at home, they couldn’t make it to an office during business hours. We visited their home in Costa Mesa, notarized the affidavits, picked up their birth certificates, and returned with apostilled documents two days later.
✅ Case 2: FBI Background Check – Coffee Shop Meetup
Marcus, a software engineer from Irvine, needed a federal apostille for an FBI background check for a remote job in Germany. He didn’t want to wait in lines or navigate the process himself. We met him at a local café in Tustin, explained the process, took his documents, and handled the D.C. processing. A week later, we met him at the same spot with his certified apostille in hand.
✅ Case 3: Corporate Apostille – Office Visit
A business based in Anaheim Hills needed several corporate resolutions apostilled for use in South Korea. Their CEO came to our office, where we reviewed all their documents and notarized what was needed. They opted for our expedited California apostille option and received their final documents in three business days.
