Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How is embassy legalization different from an apostille?
Apostilles are only accepted by countries in the Hague Convention. For other countries, your documents must go through a multi-step embassy legalization process.
How long does the process take?
Typically 7–15 business days, depending on the country and embassy workload.
Can I legalize foreign documents through you?
No, we only legalize U.S.-issued documents.
Do I need to be present for the legalization?
No, we handle the entire process on your behalf.
