Moving abroad, marrying overseas, applying for a visa? Two questions and you'll know your route and your full price — before you give us anything.
Registered for the FCDO's next-day business service — the public postal route takes up to 25 working days.
Two questions, instant answer. You see the route and the full price before anything else.
A quick scan of your document. Our checker reads it instantly and flags problems before you pay.
Post us the original with your cover sheet — we submit it on the next-day service and track every step.
Your apostilled document returned by tracked post — most orders are back within 5 working days of reaching us.
Your document decides the route, not a plan chooser — the checker above tells you which one you're on. Here's all three, so you can see there's nothing hidden.
Getting it tous is the one thing that isn't included: post it yourself, or add our prepaid tracked label for £5 and we carry the risk from the first scan.
If the FCDO can't issue an apostille on a document our pre-check passed, you choose: full refund, or we resubmit for free.
The official certificate the UK government attaches to your document so authorities abroad accept it. Nearly 130 countries recognise it under the Hague Convention.
Most paper orders are back within 5 working days of reaching us, express in about 2–3. We count from the day your originals arrive, because we can't control the post on the way in.
You can. The public postal route takes up to 25 working days. We're registered for the next-day business service, handle the forms and the queue, and keep you updated at every step.
For a paper apostille, yes — the FCDO stamps the original with the ink signature or seal. You'll get a cover sheet and an address as soon as you've paid. e-Apostilles are digital end to end.
Uploads are encrypted and stay in the UK. Scans are deleted about 30 days after your order completes, and originals come back by tracked post — included with every order.
If our pre-check passed it and the FCDO still can't issue an apostille, you choose a full refund or a free resubmission. We'll tell you what happened in plain English either way.
