Apostille Services For Public RECORDS
Apostille services within the US are available for the retrieval of certified documents for residents of foreign countries.
Records NV can process your request and help you avoid many authentication issues with documents needed for use outside the United States.
Avoid running into frustrating issues with your document authentications by obtaining the proper seal required from the Secretary of State.
Once you obtain an apostille for use in your country, you should not have any further problems.
There are several steps required to obtain the apostille, which is also referred to as certificates of authenticity and we have representatives available to assist you with the entire process.
Your public record must first be obtained from the issuing agency which could include, the federal or state agency, the city or municipal authority or the county clerk in which the document is recorded. Once the certified document has been retrieved it’s then sent to the Secretary of State to authenticate the seals and have the apostille stamp applied.
