Does my document need an apostille or authentication?
It depends on the country where the document will be used. Hague Convention countries generally require an apostille. Non-Hague countries may require authentication and additional legalization. Prismark can determine the correct process for your destination country.
Does my document have to be notarized before it can receive an apostille?
Not always. Some documents, such as certain certified vital records and government-issued documents, may not require notarization. Other documents may need to be properly notarized before they can be authenticated. We review your document before processing to help avoid unnecessary delays.
Where is my document processed?
That depends on where the document originated and the type of document. State-issued and notarized documents are generally processed through the appropriate state authority, while federal documents follow a separate federal authentication process. Prismark coordinates the appropriate process for your document.
How long does the apostille process take?
Processing times vary by state, document type, processing authority, and service level. Expedited options may be available in some jurisdictions. Contact Prismark with your document details and we can provide a more accurate timeframe.
Can Prismark handle documents if I live outside the United States?
Yes. We regularly assist clients who are outside the United States but need U.S. documents prepared for international use. International return delivery is available.
Can you apostille FBI background checks and other federal documents?
Yes. Federal documents follow a different authentication process from state-issued documents. Prismark provides dedicated FBI Background Check and federal document authentication services.
Can Prismark translate my documents and ship them internationally?
Yes. Professional translation services are available in 150+ languages, including certified and specialized translations when required. We can also coordinate secure domestic and international return delivery using major express carriers.
