Certified True Copy Apostille

Passport & ID Apostille

A notary cannot stamp your passport or license itself. We make a certified true copy, attach a notarial certificate, notarize it, and file it with the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania for the apostille — accepted for residency, banking, company formation and visa files abroad.

The certified true copy process

Why we copy it instead of stamping it.

A notary cannot sign or stamp a government-issued or bank-issued document. Instead we produce a photocopy or printed scan, attach a Pennsylvania notarial certificate certifying it as a true and correct copy, notarize that certificate, and file the packet with the Commonwealth for the apostille.

01

Free document review

Send us the document and destination country and we confirm exactly what the receiving authority expects.

02

Upload or come in

Upload a scan or bring the original to our Philadelphia office — either way we make the copy.

03

Certified true copy

We print the copy, attach a Pennsylvania notarial certificate and notarize that certificate.

04

Harrisburg apostille

We hand-deliver the notarized packet to the Department of State and collect the apostille.

05

Translation and return

Any translation is attached, then we email scans and ship or hand you the original set.

What we need

What makes a copy acceptable

  • A flat, full-page colour scan or photo — every edge and the full machine-readable strip visible.
  • No glare, no cropping, no fingers over the page; 300 dpi or a clear phone photo works.
  • The document must be unexpired unless the receiving authority accepts an expired record.
  • Tell us the destination country so we match its wording and translation requirements.
  • Coming in person? Bring the original document plus a valid photo ID.
