How do I get an
apostille in Houston?
The short and truthful answer is you can’t.
The only place in the State of Texas (or the world for that matter) where you or your company can be issued a Texas apostille certificate on any type of personal, business, or corporation document that was either notarized by a Texas notary or was issued from a Texas governmental agency is at the Texas Secretary of State located in Austin, TX.
When you see companies or random notaries advertising online for Houston apostille services please understand you can’t travel anywhere in Houston or mail your documents to anywhere in Houston, and be legally issued a Texas apostille certificate.
All you are doing is mailing, dropping off, or having someone come to you to pick up your documents which is a third-party middle-man company that will either outsource the filings of your documents to a person or a company like ours that is physically located in Austin who will then same day file your documents at the Secretary of State Texas office.
Or worse these shady middle-man places simply mail your documents off to the Texas Secretary of State office and then tell you it will take several days, weeks, or even months to procure your certifications as they absurdly overcharge you for so-called, “expedited services.”
