What is the proper way for a
translator to notarize my
documents to apostille?
If you need to hire and use a translator to translate documents that you want apostilled, authenticated, or legalized.
You can copy/paste, print out, get notarized (you can ONLY use a Texas notary no other states) and attach with a paper clip along with your translated documents and a copy of the original document to this Certificate of Translation certificate that has been approved to use by the Texas Secretary of State.
