Florida Fast Apostille is a Tallahassee filing desk. We do not issue the stamp. The Florida Department of State does, at one office, after the original paper passes a simple check: certified copy, Florida notary when needed, and a country that actually takes this stamp.
Upload a photo on the order form before you ship. If the file will fail — photocopy, out-of-state notary, missing clerk stamp, Cuba, or an FBI report — we tell you while the paper is still in your hands. If you are abroad and still need a notary, it must be a Florida video notary, not a local notary in Mexico or Colombia.
Download the True and Correct Copy PDF when you need a Florida notary to attach a statement to a photocopy. Then ship the original to us. We file at the Florida Department of State in Tallahassee and send it back with tracking.
Read the destination pages for Mexico, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, and Cuba. Browse Florida cities for shipping time from your ZIP. Prices start at $125. How it works is six steps.
