Apostilles in California

## What the California apostille office asks for

The issuing office is the [California Secretary of State, Notary Public Section](https://www.sos.ca.gov/notary/request-apostille/).

State fee: $20 per apostille, plus a $6 special handling fee for each different official's signature on in-person requests. When a job includes it, the fee is listed and repaid against your receipt.

Ways to submit: By mail to Sacramento, or in person at the Sacramento or Los Angeles office (Los Angeles doesn't take cash).

How long it takes: Processed in the order received; the office posts current processing dates rather than a fixed time.

The county step: County-issued birth and death certificates are certified by the county clerk first.

## Apostille Agent: common questions in California

**Do apostille agents also do court runs?**

The work is county clerk and apostille office runs, not courthouse filings. You can choose both on the form.

**Is a notary commission required?**

No. Agents carry and submit documents; they never notarize or sign them.

**How much apostille work is there in California?**

We can't say. Runs are offered only as clients ask for them, with no guaranteed number.
