Need an Apostille Fast? Here’s Exactly What to Do (2025 Rush Guide)
If you’re on a deadline and need an apostille fast — don’t panic.
Here’s the exact step-by-step process to follow so you don’t lose days or make a costly mistake.
Step 1: Confirm if Your Document Needs to Be Notarized First
Some documents must be notarized before they can receive an apostille — others do not.
✅ Documents that usually DO need notarization first:
Power of Attorney
Consent letters for minors traveling
Business/legal contracts
Sworn affidavits / personal statements
✅ Documents that usually do NOT need notarization first:
Birth certificates
Marriage certificates
Divorce decrees
Court-issued or state-issued documents
If you’re unsure — ask upfront. Incorrectly notarizing a document can delay it by weeks.
Step 2: Check if the Receiving Country Allows Remote Notarization — or Requires a Wet Signature
This one step affects everything about your timeline.
If the country accepts Remote Online Notarization (RON) → your document may not need to be physically mailed — it can be handled securely online.
If the country requires a wet ink signature (traditional stamp) → you must physically mail the original document for apostille processing.
Example:
🇧🇷 Brazil requires wet signatures — documents must be physically mailed.
🇨🇦 Canada often accepts RON for certain document types.
This determines whether your timeline is completely remote — or mail-dependent.
Step 3: Choose Your Apostille Speed Strategy
Standard Apostille-No immediate deadline-7–10 business days
Expedited Apostille-Immigration, marriage, business deadlines-3–5 business days
Embassy Authentication-Non-Hague countries -10–15+ business days
Every hour matters when you’re on deadline — choosing the wrong path adds days, not hours.
Step 4: Send Your Documents Correctly (Don’t Lose Time Here)
✅ If RON is allowed → you may be able to complete everything online
✅ If wet signature is required → overnight mail is non-negotiable
✅ Always confirm address and courier requirements BEFORE shipping
Step 5: Work With a Service That Handles Everything for You
