Apostilles in Colorado
The Colorado apostille process agents follow
Requests go to the Colorado Secretary of State, Authentications Program.
Fee per request: $5 per apostille by mail or drop-off. Agents pay it only when the job says so, and are repaid against the receipt.
How requests are taken: Mail in, drop off, or walk in for expedited service (hand-delivered before 4:30 p.m.); online apostilles aren't available. Payment by check or money order only.
Turnaround the office states: Worked in the order received, not on weekends or holidays; the office reports longer than normal wait times and states no number of days. Expedited service is for documents hand-delivered before 4:30 p.m. and can take longer when demand is heavy.

Colorado apostille agent questions
How is this different from court runs?
Only if you choose to: the form lets you pick apostille runs only, or apostille and court runs.
Will I notarize anything?
No. If a document needs notarizing, that happens before the run, by someone else.
Is there steady work in Colorado?
It depends on client requests near your ZIP and the state office, and we can't promise any volume.
