How do I get a Sacramento apostille?

If you have a document being presented in another country, the recipient might ask you to obtain a “Sacramento apostille” (a.k.a. California Secretary of State or Hague apostille) before shipping it to them. The good news is that you don’t have to travel to Sacramento to get the apostille. SF Notary + Apostille can take your document to the Secretary of State’s office in Sacramento. We will obtain the Sacramento, California, apostille while we wait (no matter how long it takes), and send it back to you or directly to the overseas recipient.
