How To Apostille Texas
Certificate of Assumed
Business Name

Step 1

We only need three things from you to start the Texas Certificate of Assumed Business Name apostille service process.

First, email us a photocopy of your Texas Certificate of Assumed Business Name paperwork. You cannot mail or drop off this document to us to rush apostille because the TXSOS corporations division does not accept or apostille documents that people try to give them in person or by mail. 

They will only issue new certified copies of corporation documents that have already been filed with them in the past and then issue a Texas apostille or authenticate certificate on the newly issued Certificate of Assumed Business Name certified copy.

If you don’t have your Certificate of Assumed Business Name paperwork available just email us the unique SOS file number that you were given by the Texas Secretary of State and the full legal name of your corporation along with our order form and a prepaid return shipping label to place your order.

Please note our Texas apostille prices for rush obtaining documents at the corporations unit side are higher then what is listed on the website because the corporations unit government filing fees are almost four times higher then the non-corporations state government filing fees on the authentications unit side.

Also, you must complete a separate Texas apostille order form for these types of corporation unit documents if you are also ordering regular non-corporate documents to apostille at the same time.

Meaning two order forms will be needed to be completed by you –  one apostille order form for all corporation unit documents and one apostille order form for all other types of documents.

Step 2

Second email us a prepaid FedEx or UPS return shipping label (we do not accept air waybills) that you can create and purchase online at FedEx.com or UPS.com without needing to have an existing account set up with them. You can also visit any UPS Store or FedEx Office location to purchase a prepaid shipping label as well. 

Do not use the United States Postal Service (USPS) because they lose things constantly
(potentially your Certificate of Assumed Business Name) and are completely unreliable and slow.

The reason we require a prepaid return shipping label is so we can mail your documents back to you or to wherever and whomever in the world that you want your documents shipped to.

If it’s an international shipment (USA to another foreign country) please also provide us with a shipping invoice (see the two links below to download prefilled out shipping templates) that courier companies (FedEx, UPS) will normally require you to include whenever you ship documents internationally to certain countries. If you or someone on your behalf will be returning to our office the following business day to pick up your apostilled or authenticated documents you of course won’t need to provide us with a shipping label.

For the fastest possible turnaround time, we can hand deliver your documents right to your home, office, business or hotel the very same day that we apostilled or authenticated them for an additional courier fee. The courier cost will depend on what city and zip code in Texas you need us to travel to. This is for situations where you don’t have the time to travel back to our office to pick your documents up or you don’t want your documents mailed anywhere.

                                                                                On the prepaid return shipping label
                                                                                  that you provide us you can list the
                                                                                    from senders mailing address as:

Apostille Texas
108 Wild Basin Rd S, Ste 250
Austin, TX 78746

Step 3

Third, you will need to download, sign, and email our rush Texas apostille service order form that can be instantly downloaded by clicking on the Texas apostille order form button below.

Please also understand your documents will not and cannot be apostilled or authenticated onsite at our office so this isn’t walk-in service.

The only legal and government entity in Texas that can issue apostille and authentication certificates is the Texas Secretary of State office which is where we will rush file your Texas Certificate of Assumed Business Name at on your behalf.

The Texas Secretary of State corporations unit is very erratic unlike the authentications unit side when it comes to the speed of apostilling and authenticating documents. If we receive your Certificate of Assumed Business Name order by email on a Monday the state normally will have it ready for us to pickup by Tuesday end of business day.

But sometimes it can take them up to 2-3 business days to issue apostille or authentication certificates on your documents please understand. 

Lastly, we do not have these Texas apostille order forms available at our front desk receptionist area.

So if you choose to drop your documents off at our office please make sure to print out and bring this Texas apostille order form in with you or alternatively you can email us the completed Texas apostille order form ahead of time.
