Do you need your documents certified and legalized for another country?
At USA Apostille, Inc., we can legalize your documents through select Embassy offices in Washington, D.C., and Consulate offices located throughout the United States including California (San Francisco & Los Angeles), Texas, Florida, New York, Illinois and Colorado.
Documents certified by the State and destined for countries who are not members of the Hague Apostille Convention require State certification, U.S. Department of State certification, and Embassy or Consulate legalization. Also, documents issued by the U.S. Federal Government can only be processed through the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. before being presented to the Embassy or Consulate office for legalization.
Here is an illustration to help explain the process better:
