New York's extra step
catches everyone
New York apostilles have a quirk most states don't: many documents — notarized papers and NYC vital records among them — must first be authenticated by the county clerk of the county where the notary is commissioned or the record was issued, and only then can the NY Department of State affix the apostille. Skip the county step and your submission comes straight back. Navigating this two-stage chain is precisely what you're paying us to know.
NYC-issued birth and marriage certificates, NYS court records, notarized powers of attorney, and school documents each enter the chain differently — we route each correctly the first time.
From the five boroughs
to the world
New York documents travel everywhere, but common New York apostille destinations include the Dominican Republic (property, inheritance, and civil matters), Italy (jure sanguinis citizenship through NY-born ancestors), Spain, Colombia, and Ecuador. Each destination's registries expect translation of document plus apostille — Spanish or Italian — and we deliver the finished, destination-ready packet in one order.
