Apostille Services

An “apostille” is a form of authentication issued to 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, documents being sent to that country can be “authenticated” or “certified”.

The Office of the Secretary of State provides apostille and authentication service to U.S. citizens and foreign nationals on documents that will be used overseas. Types of documents include corporate documents such as company bylaws and articles of incorporation, power of attorney, diplomas, transcripts, letters relating to degrees, marital status, references and job certifications, home studies, deeds of assignments, distributorship agreements, papers for adoption purposes, etc. The U.S. State Department provides general information about document authentications and apostilles under the Hague Convention of 1961.

Why choose Seals On Wheels Notary over other competitors?

Notary related services and Apostilles are our specialty. Too often we find that clients are calling us because other notaries incorrectly notarized their important documents which in turn resulted in the rejection of these documents by the Secretary of State. We have found that many notaries are often doing notary work as a “side job” in addition to other jobs such as income taxes and insurances services. This often results in a lack of procedural knowledge on behalf of that notary or “sloppy” work.

Another services rely on an “online” platform which requires cumbersome (and often unnecessary) steps to have your documents apostilled. Some services require that you upload your documents which often contain sensitive information. Furthermore, these services often require you to ship documents back and forth. You can easily identify these services which often advertise misleading low teaser rates.

Seals on Wheels provides you the ability to bundle all these services and save money! Remember, there is no need to visit different locations or utilize different services. This often results in one vendor blaming the other for errors, more fees, and delays. We take care of it all. The following are just some of our specialty areas:
