Notarized in Texas: the exact route
A notarized document like this is authenticated through the notary, not the federal government. If it was notarized in Texas, the apostille is issued by the Texas Secretary of State in Austin.
- Hague Convention destination: the Texas apostille is the final step.
- Non-Hague destination: the Texas-authenticated document then goes to the U.S. Department of State and on to the destination’s embassy.
We don’t submit to the Texas Secretary of State directly. Once your document has its Texas authentication, we handle the U.S. Department of State and embassy steps for non-Hague destinations ($399).
Get the notarial wording right before signing — requirements vary by destination, and a mistake means redoing the whole chain.
