An Apostille is a special certificate, stamped with a red seal, that is attached to your original document verifying the signature of a Notary Public or other official is legitimate and authentic. An Apostille is commonly used to authenticate documents that are to be introduced to a foreign consulate or foreign country. MISSION DOC PREP takes the stress away from acquiring a California Apostille, out of state Apostilles, and Federal Apostilles.
Our office is easily accessible by motor-vehicle, public transit, BART, bikes, and walking with tons of surrounding street parking, coffee shops and great places to eat. We can also come to you if you rather not commute to our office. See our mobile services for more info.
Our current Apostille prices and service times are as follows:
- 10-15 business days $180
- 6 business days $250
- 3 business days $350
- 2 business days $600
- Next business day $1100
Each additional Apostille is a $85.
The certificate of authenticity (Apostille) only certifies the authenticity of the signature of the notary public or official who signed the document, the capacity in which they acted and, when applicable, the identity of the seal that the document bears. The authentication certificate does not validate the rest of the content of the document. The Apostille is used to authenticate signatures signed by a notary public or a public official.
If your documents do not have the prerequisites to receive the Apostille, MISSION DOC PREP can assist you in acquiring those prerequisites.
ISSUANCE OF A SINGLE AUTHENTICATION CERTIFICATE: Effective January 1, 2017, the California Secretary of State’s office will begin issuing a single Authentication Certificate for documents to be used outside of the country rather than issuing either an Apostille or Certificate depending on the country of destination.

DO NOT BE FOOLED: This is NOT the same as an Apostille.
