An apostille is a state issued certificate that confirms the authenticity of a notarized or official public document so it will be accepted in other countries that follow the Hague Convention. Common files include powers of attorney, living wills and health directives, corporate resolutions, adoption records, and academic records. We guide you on whether your document needs notarization first, or if you must request a certified copy before apostille.
Final quotes depend on document type, count, and destination. State and agency fees are billed at cost. We confirm totals before dispatch.

đź’ˇ Why Professional Coordination Saves Money: DIY apostille submissions often result in rejection due to improper notarial certificates, missing authentication chains for out-of-state documents, or incorrect request forms.

Our apostille coordination service includes pre-submission document review to ensure 95%+ first-time acceptance rates.

The distinction between apostille and certified copy depends on who created the document and how it's authenticated. Notarized documents (like powers of attorney, affidavits, consent forms) are apostilled as signed originals with the notary's certificate. Vital records and court documents (birth certificates, marriage licenses, court judgments) require certified copies from the issuing agency before the Nevada Secretary of State will apostille them.
Note: The apostille certificate itself is issued exclusively by the Nevada Secretary of State. Lake Mead Mobile Notary coordinates document notarization (when required), obtains certified copies from issuing agencies, and provides courier coordination to submit documents for apostille authentication.

Different scenario - Birth certificate for Italian citizenship:
🌍 Non-Hague Convention Countries: If your destination country is NOT part of the Hague Convention (e.g., United Arab Emirates, Taiwan, several Caribbean nations), the apostille process doesn't apply. You'll need federal authentication through the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C., followed by legalization from the destination country's embassy or consulate. We coordinate the initial Nevada Secretary of State authentication as the first step in this chain.
đź’ˇ Why Professional Document Coordination Matters: The most common apostille rejection is submitting the wrong document type. Examples: (1) Submitting hospital-issued birth certificate instead of state-certified copy (rejected), (2) Attempting to apostille a photocopy instead of original notarized document (rejected), (3) Submitting Nevada documents to wrong state's Secretary of State (rejected). Our apostille coordination service reviews your specific documents and destination country requirements before submission to ensure proper authentication pathway.
🏢 Service Areas for Document Coordination: We provide mobile notarization and apostille document coordination throughout Spring Valley residential areas, Green Valley Ranch communities, and Aliante neighborhoods.
