Same or next business day apostille service in Los Angeles. We pick up your documents, notarize if needed, and hand-carry to the Secretary of State.
Apostille service when you are on a deadline
If you have an international deadline, embassy appointment, or last‑minute request, waiting weeks for an apostille is not an option.
We help clients across Los Angeles get documents notarized and apostilled on a same‑ or next business day basis whenever processing rules and cut‑off times make it possible. We come to you as a mobile notary, then hand‑carry or courier your documents for apostille so you do not have to stand in line or guess about the process.
Before you book, we review your situation, confirm whether expedited options are realistic for your specific documents, and outline a clear timeline so there are no surprises.
This page covers expedited apostille timing. For specific document types, visit our pages for vital records, court documents, federal documents, or powers of attorney and notarized documents.

How same‑/next‑day apostille service works
1. We review your documents and deadline.
You can text or email copies of your documents so we can confirm whether notarization is required, which authority will issue the apostille, and whether same‑ or next business day processing is realistic for your situation.
2. Mobile notarization anywhere in Los Angeles.
A commissioned mobile notary meets you at a convenient location in Los Angeles County to verify ID and notarize your documents, when notarization is required for apostille.
3. We obtain the apostille and return your documents.
After notarization, we submit your documents for apostille using same‑ or next business day options when available, then arrange delivery back to you or directly to your contact, embassy, or institution.
Processing times and fees depend on the issuing state, document type, and the time of day we receive your paperwork. We will walk you through the options before you commit.

Questions about fast apostille service
Can every document get a same‑day apostille?
Not every document qualifies for same‑day processing. Eligibility depends on the issuing authority, current processing options, and when we receive your paperwork. We will confirm what is possible before you schedule.
Do my documents need to be notarized first?
Many personal and business documents must be notarized before an apostille can be issued, but some government‑issued records can be apostilled without notarization. We will review your documents and let you know what is required.
Can you work with documents from other states?
Yes, we can often coordinate apostilles for documents from other U.S. states, but timing may be longer than same‑ or next‑day depending on that state's rules. We will outline expected timeframes for each jurisdiction.
How do I know if I need an apostille or a different authentication?
Apostilles are used for countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention. Other countries may require consular legalization instead. If you tell us which country will use your documents, we will confirm the correct process.
