Frequently asked questions
Is the day after Thanksgiving a holiday?
Yes. In California it is an official state holiday, so the Secretary of State and many government offices are closed on Friday, November 27, 2026. We remain available by appointment.
Can you notarize and start the apostille the same day?
We notarize and fully prepare your document on Friday. Because the state office is closed, the apostille itself is issued on the next business day — but your document is ready and first in the queue.
Do you offer mobile service?
Yes, our mobile notaries travel across Orange County to your home or office — ideal while out-of-town family is still visiting.
Can I mail my documents in?
Absolutely. See how mail-in apostille works — we serve all 50 states and clients overseas.
