The Trusted Choice for Expedited Federal Apostilles
.
Federal & State Documents We Handle
The U.S. Department of State issues apostilles and authentication certificates for documents issued by federal agencies. These documents are often required for international use, including immigration, employment abroad, dual citizenship, and legal matters in Hague Convention countries.
Our federal apostille service helps clients obtain an apostille quickly without navigating the complex government process themselves.
Federal Document
Federal documents are issued by U.S. government agencies and require apostille authentication through the U.S. Department of State. We hand-deliver all federal documents in person in Washington, D.C.
FBI Background Checks
Our most-requested service. Whether you received your Identity History Summary from an FBI-approved channeler or directly from the FBI, we can apostille it. Commonly needed for immigration visas, teaching abroad, international marriage, and foreign employment.
Naturalization Certificates
If you’re a naturalized U.S. citizen and need to prove your citizenship abroad, your Certificate of Naturalization (Form N-550 or N-570) requires a federal apostille from the Department of State. This is frequently required for dual citizenship applications, inheritance claims, property purchases, and consular registrations in foreign countries.
FDA & USDA Certificates
Certificates of Free Sale, export certificates, and other regulatory documents issued by federal agencies. Required by many countries for importing food, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and medical products.
National Archives & Records (NARA) Documents
Documents obtained from the U.S. National Archives and Records Administration — including certified copies of historical immigration records, military service records, land patents, and other archived federal documents — require a federal apostille. These are commonly needed for genealogy-based citizenship applications (such as Italian jure sanguinis or Irish foreign birth registration), estate claims, and historical legal proceedings abroad.
U.S. Patents & Trademarks
Patent grants, trademark registrations, and other intellectual property documents issued by the USPTO. Often needed for filing IP protections or enforcing intellectual property rights in foreign jurisdictions.
Federal Court Records
Judgments, orders, and certified copies from U.S. federal courts. Required for enforcing legal decisions, establishing legal status, or submitting evidence in legal proceedings abroad.
Benefit Verification & Government Letters
U.S. government agencies issue benefit verification letters and decision documents that are frequently required for immigration, residency, and pension claims abroad. These federal documents are apostilled through the U.S. Department of State.
Social Security Administration (SSA) Benefit Letters
SSA benefit verification letters confirm your Social Security retirement, disability (SSDI), or survivor benefits. Many countries require an apostilled SSA letter as proof of income for residency visas, retirement visas, and non-lucrative visas. Common destinations include Spain, Portugal, Mexico, Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia.
VA (Veterans Affairs) Benefit Letters
The Department of Veterans Affairs issues benefit summary letters (sometimes called VA award letters) that verify disability compensation, pension, education benefits, or healthcare eligibility. An apostilled VA letter is often required when a U.S. veteran applies for residency, tax exemptions, or government services in a foreign country.
Military Disability Rating Decisions
VA disability rating decision letters confirm your service-connected disability percentage and compensation amount. Foreign governments and institutions may require these apostilled documents for immigration applications, residency permits, disability accommodations, or tax benefit claims abroad.
Pension Letters
Federal pension verification letters — including those from the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) for retired federal employees, military retirement pay statements, and other federal pension documentation — are frequently required as apostilled proof of income for foreign residency applications, particularly in countries that require minimum income thresholds for retirement or non-lucrative visas.
State Documents
State-issued documents are apostilled through the Secretary of State’s office in the state where the document was issued. We handle the entire process for you.
Birth Certificates
Needed for dual citizenship applications, foreign school enrollment, immigration proceedings, and proving identity abroad. Must be a certified copy from the issuing state’s vital records office.
Marriage Certificates
Required when registering your marriage abroad, applying for a spousal visa, changing your name in a foreign country, or proving marital status for immigration purposes.
Divorce Decrees
Often required before you can legally remarry in another country or to finalize immigration paperwork that requires proof of marital status.
Death Certificates
Needed for settling estates with international assets, collecting insurance or pension benefits abroad, or handling inheritance matters in foreign jurisdictions.
Academic Diplomas & Transcripts
Universities and employers abroad frequently require apostilled academic records before they’ll recognize your degree or accept your credentials. Includes high school diplomas, bachelor’s and graduate degrees, and official transcripts.
Power of Attorney & Notarized Documents
Legal documents granting authority to act on your behalf in foreign jurisdictions. Includes general and specific powers of attorney, affidavits, sworn statements, and other notarized documents.
Corporate Documents
Articles of incorporation, certificates of good standing, corporate resolutions, and other business documents needed for establishing or verifying a U.S. business entity in a foreign country.
