Apostille Fast Track - Private Service
Drive to Sacramento with your Document(s):
The Secretary of State (SOS) allows in-person, over-the-counter requests. They charge a modest fee per Apostille and can often certify your documents same day (within a few hours). Sometimes it takes them 24-48 hours. It can take more if they are backlogged but that is rare. If you live near Sacramento and can spare the time, this is your best bet.
Mail Apostille Request & Documents to SOS Office & wait 4-6 weeks
Print out and complete the Secretary of State's Apostille Request form, write a check for their processing fee, and mail with your document(s) and a self-addressed return envelope. The state does not confirm receipt of your documents or let you know when they are shipped. If your documents are lost you can't track them down. But if you are not in a hurry this is a low cost option that takes less time than driving to Sacramento.
If you can't wait 6 weeks and driving to Sacramento isn't convenient then use Apostille Fast Track's fast dependable courier service
