In the global age of remote work, international education, dual citizenship, and cross-border adoption, the simple act of validating a document can become a frustrating maze. That’s where Boston Notary Service comes in—your full-service solution for apostille services in Massachusetts, trusted by individuals, law firms, universities, corporations, and international agencies.

From the cobblestones of Beacon Hill to the innovation corridors of Cambridge, we provide seamless, fast, and secure apostille processing for clients around the corner—and around the world.



Apostille Services: More Than Just a Stamp

An apostille is a form of international document authentication, recognized among member countries of the Hague Convention of 1961. It certifies the origin of a public document (like a birth certificate, diploma, or FBI background check) so it can be accepted overseas.

But here's the catch: the process is never one-size-fits-all. Each country, document type, and agency has unique rules. That’s why working with experienced professionals like Boston Notary Service is the difference between a successful submission and a delayed visa, lost job opportunity, or denied international registration.

FAQ—But Naturally

You might wonder:

Do I need the original document to get an apostille? In most cases, yes. Especially for vital records, the Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth requires certified originals. Don’t worry—we can retrieve these on your behalf.

How long does it take? We offer standard and expedited timelines depending on the document and destination country. Most apostilles are completed in 3–7 business days, with rush options available.

Can I get a document apostilled for a non-Hague country? Yes—but instead of an apostille, the document will go through authentication and consular legalization. We guide you through that too.

Is notarization required before an apostille? For personal or corporate documents, yes. For government-issued documents, no. That’s why we offer full notary services in Boston to ensure your documents are prepared properly.
