Apostille FAQ
How long does a New Jersey Apostille take?
Standard mail processing with the state can take 4–8 weeks. We also offer expedited processing options for clients who need a faster turnaround. Exact timing depends on the document and authentication method required.
Can you handle documents issued outside of New Jersey?
Yes. We process out-of-state documents from all 50 states as well as federal records requiring U.S. Department of State authentication in Washington, D.C.
Can you apostille a photocopy of a birth or marriage certificate?
Vital records such as birth, marriage, and death certificates generally need to be certified copies issued by the appropriate vital records authority. A regular photocopy is not used as the underlying vital record for Apostille processing.
What is the difference between an Apostille and Legalization?
An Apostille is used for documents going to countries participating in the Hague Apostille Convention. Countries outside that system generally require an authentication and embassy or consular legalization process.
How much does an Apostille cost?
Our processing fee is $160 for the first document and $35 for each additional document. Government, courier, shipping, and other third-party fees are additional.
