How to Submit Your Documents
Please follow these instructions carefully to avoid delays in processing:
1. Prepare your original document
The original document requiring an apostille must be mailed to our office. Please do not send additional paperwork unless specifically requested.
2. Purchase a return shipping label
Visit FedEx and purchase a prepaid return shipping label so your completed documents can be returned to you.
For documents being returned outside of the United States, you may provide a prepaid FedEx or DHL international return label.
Your mailing envelope should contain ONLY:
-
The original document(s) requiring apostille service
-
Your prepaid return shipping label
3. Photograph your shipment before mailing
Before sending your envelope, please take a clear photo of the shipping label and the sealed envelope. Text the photo to us so we know your documents are on the way and can identify your shipment when it arrives.
4. Ship your documents
Send the envelope to the mailing address provided by The Certified Society.
Once your shipment has been sent, we will provide payment instructions. Payment must be received before apostille processing can begin.
