Where to Get an Apostille in Boston, MA
Updated: Nov 6
BOSTON NOTARY SERVICE · BOSTON FILING OPTIONS
The Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth handles apostilles for eligible Massachusetts documents. You can file directly with the state or ask Boston Notary Service for preparation, handoff and submission assistance.
Where the state accepts Boston submissions
The Boston Commissions Section is at One Ashburton Place. Review the state’s posted instructions for the form, fees, cutoff and document count rules before visiting or mailing a package.
Check your document before making the trip
Bring the appropriate official certified record or eligible Massachusetts notarized document. An FBI background check follows federal processing, and a record from another state generally starts with that state’s competent authority.
If you’re outside Massachusetts
Tell us where the document is now, who issued it and where the completed packet must go. We can review eligible mail-in coordination, retrieval and domestic or international return options for your request.
Get the preparation steps first
Ask your recipient about document format, recency and translations. Share those instructions and the delivery deadline when requesting assistance.
Get a plan for your documents
Share what you have, where it’s going and when it needs to arrive. We’ll confirm what’s needed and quote the work before you send originals. Your initial request does not collect payment.
