Answers for every step of your document journey.

An apostille is a certificate used to verify a public document for use in another country that participates in the Hague Apostille Convention. If the destination country is not a participant, authentication and embassy legalization may be required instead. Tell us where the document was issued and where it will be used, and we will identify the correct route.

Yes. Send us a clear photo or scan of the document and tell us the country where it will be presented. We will review the issuing authority, signature and document format, then explain whether you need notarization, an apostille, federal authentication, embassy legalization or another service.

It depends on the document and the authority that issued it. Some orders require the original or a certified copy, while others may qualify with a properly notarized copy or an eligible electronic record. We will confirm exactly what is required before you send anything.

Processing times vary depending on the services you need and current government processing times. If you're working with a deadline, let us know—we'll recommend the fastest available option for your order.

Expedited options are available for eligible services and orders. Same-day handling may be possible in some situations, but government and embassy timelines cannot always be accelerated. Share your deadline with us and we will recommend the fastest realistic option.

Yes, for eligible documents we can coordinate notarization and the required apostille or authentication as one order. We will review the requirements before arranging notarization. If you are unsure what your document needs, an online consultation can help clarify the next steps.

Yes. We coordinate federal apostille or authentication for eligible FBI Identity History Summary results. We can also explain the acceptable document format and coordinate certified translation and return delivery when those services are needed.

Yes. We can coordinate certified translations alongside your apostille service to keep the complete process in one place. Tell us the language pair and where the translated document will be submitted so we can confirm the appropriate format.

We can assist with obtaining eligible certified U.S. records when the issuing jurisdiction permits third-party retrieval. Availability and authorization requirements vary by record type and location, so we will confirm the available options after reviewing your request.

Yes. We offer secure domestic and international delivery options for completed documents. Available carriers, tracking and delivery times depend on the destination and the return method selected for your order.

No. Tell us what document you have, where it needs to be used, and what you are trying to accomplish. We will review the information and explain the appropriate starting point.

No payment is required until an EZPZ facilitator reviews your submission and confirms the recommended services, pricing, and estimated turnaround time.

Start by uploading a readable copy through the online request form. Depending on the service, original documents may later be submitted by mail, email, scheduled notarization, or arranged pickup.

Timing depends on the document, issuing authority, destination, and services involved. We provide an estimated turnaround after reviewing your request. Expedited or same/next-day options may be available for eligible services.

Yes. International delivery through DHL is available, along with domestic options such as USPS, FedEx, and UPS. Available methods and costs are confirmed with your quote, and tracking is provided.

An apostille is generally used for Hague Convention destinations. Non-Hague destinations may require additional authentication and embassy or consular legalization.

An online consultation is a conversation about your questions, service options, and preparation; documents are not notarized during it. Mobile notarization is an in-person appointment at an agreed Arizona location. If you are unsure what you need, start with a consultation.

Yes. Certified translation may be coordinated with notarization, apostille, authentication, or legalization when the receiving authority requires it.

For eligible U.S. public records, EZPZ can help obtain a certified copy from the appropriate issuing office and then coordinate related services.

International delivery can be arranged through available tracked carrier options, including DHL. Timing and availability depend on the destination and request.

It is the record the FBI provides in response to a fingerprint-based identity history request. It may show information tied to fingerprint submissions or confirm that no identity history was found. It is often requested for immigration, residency, employment, licensing, or citizenship matters outside the United States.

That depends on where the document will be used and what the receiving authority requested. A Hague Convention destination will commonly ask for a federal apostille. A non-Hague destination may require a federal authentication certificate followed by additional embassy or consular steps. EZPZ checks the destination before recommending the route.

An FBI background check is a federal document, so it follows the federal apostille or authentication process—not the usual secretary-of-state process used for many state and local documents. The original FBI document should not be notarized simply to send it through a state-level route.

Your document may need a federal authentication certificate instead of an apostille. Depending on the country, the destination embassy or consulate may also require legalization. Tell us the country and the purpose of the document so we can map the appropriate sequence.

A new FBI Identity History Summary request requires a current fingerprint submission. The available collection and submission options depend on your location and the request method. EZPZ can help you understand the next step before your document enters the apostille process.

Yes. Send the report for review and tell us where it will be used. If the document is suitable for the requested service, we can begin with the federal apostille or authentication stage and coordinate any translation and return delivery you need.

Translation requirements are set by the receiving authority. If a translation is required, EZPZ can coordinate certified translation alongside the document service so the pieces stay organized within one process.

Timing varies based on whether you already have the FBI report, current government processing, the destination country, translation, legalization, and delivery. Share your deadline when requesting a quote and we will explain the available service options—without promising a timeline the issuing authorities do not control.

Yes. Domestic and international return delivery can be coordinated for completed documents. Provide the destination when you request a quote so the team can confirm the available delivery method and price.

Tell us the destination country, why the document is being requested, your deadline, whether you already have the FBI report, and whether you may need translation or international delivery. Those details help us recommend the right service path and prepare a clearer quote.

Common examples include certificates of good standing or status, certified articles of incorporation, amendments, mergers, dissolutions, bylaws, corporate resolutions, powers of attorney, incumbency documents, agreements, commercial invoices and company declarations. Eligibility depends on who issued or signed the record, its current format and where it will be used.

A state-filed corporate record usually needs an eligible certified copy from the office that maintains the record. A basic download, office copy or photocopy may not qualify. Send us a clear scan first; we will identify whether the version you have can be processed or whether a new certified copy is needed.

It depends on the record. A certified document issued by a state office generally follows the public-official route and should not be notarized simply to replace official certification. Privately signed company documents—such as certain resolutions, powers of attorney or declarations—may require a properly completed notarization. We review the document before recommending either route.

For a state-issued or state-certified corporate record, the apostille normally comes from the state that issued or certified it. For a privately signed and notarized corporate document, the route is generally tied to the notary’s commission and the state where the notarial act was completed. The company’s current address alone does not determine the authority.

An apostille is used for a Hague Convention destination. A non-Hague destination may require a different authentication and legalization sequence, potentially involving additional government or consular steps. Tell us the exact destination country and receiving institution so we can map the correct route before processing begins.

No. An apostille authenticates the signature and capacity of the public official or notary connected to the document and, when applicable, the seal or stamp. It does not confirm that every statement in the corporate record is true, approve the transaction or determine the document’s legal effect in the destination country.

A scan is useful for our initial review, but it is not always the version an authority can authenticate. Many state routes require an original notarized document or an eligible certified record rather than a plain photocopy. Electronic acceptance also varies by authority, so we confirm the required format before you ship or re-order anything.

That depends on the receiving country and the organization requesting the documents. Some recipients accept the English record with its apostille; others require a professional or certified translation and may specify when it must be completed. Confirm the recipient’s language requirement early so the translation follows the correct sequence.

Timing depends on the issuing state, whether a certified copy or notarization is still needed, the government authority, the destination route and return shipping. Non-Hague legalization can add steps. Share your deadline at the start and we will explain the realistic route and available handling options before you commit.

Send a clear scan or photo, the exact document name, the state or authority that issued it, the destination country and your deadline. If you know whether the document is an original, certified copy or notarized record, include that too. We will use those details to identify the route and tell you what is needed next.

A marriage license authorizes the marriage, while the completed and recorded marriage record is generally the version requested for official or international use. Terminology varies by jurisdiction, so we review the document itself.

Generally, no. For an Arizona marriage record, the apostille is normally attached to a physical certified copy issued by the government office. After reviewing your scan, EZPZ will confirm whether you should mail or deliver that certified copy—or whether record retrieval can be coordinated.

If apostille or legalization requires the physical certified copy, yes—but only after EZPZ reviews your scan and confirms the document is suitable. You are usually sending an official certified copy from the issuing office, not an irreplaceable keepsake. If EZPZ retrieves the certified copy directly, you may not need to ship one.

A state-issued marriage record is generally authenticated by the competent authority in the state where the record was issued—not simply the state where you currently live.

The document may require authentication and additional embassy or consular legalization instead of a standard apostille. We confirm the destination before processing begins.

Yes. When the receiving authority requires another language, certified translation can be coordinated as part of the request after the document and language requirements are reviewed.

Timing depends on the document’s current condition, issuing state, destination, and any retrieval or legalization steps. Expedited and same/next-day options may be available for eligible Arizona requests after review.
