Apostille Services in Four Corners, Oregon
Apostille Request Form
The Oregon Secretary of State issues every apostille from its office in Salem. Our courier hand-delivers your document there and brings it back, so you skip the paperwork and the waiting. $195, with next-day service available.
Where to Get an Apostille in Four Corners
The Secretary of State office that issues every Oregon apostille is at 255 Capitol St NE in Salem, so Four Corners residents can file in person. Many still use a service, because the request has to be prepared correctly, and a document with the wrong type of copy or notarization is turned away.
Our courier is at the state office regularly. We check your document first, carry it in by hand and bring it back, so it does not go through the mail to the state. We serve Four Corners and the rest of Marion County.

Birth certificates are the document we apostille most often. The state only accepts a certified copy issued by the Oregon Center for Health Statistics or by the county where the birth was recorded. Photocopies and hospital souvenir certificates are not accepted.
Marriage and divorce certificates also need to be certified copies. Powers of attorney, single status certificates, diplomas and transcripts must be notarized first, which we can arrange. FBI background checks are federal documents, so Oregon cannot apostille them; our courier hand-delivers them to the US Department of State. If the destination country requires a translation, we provide certified document translation in house, so your apostille and your translation are handled in one place.

Common Apostille Questions in Four Corners
Where can I get my birth certificate apostilled near Four Corners?
The Secretary of State office in Salem issues them. We can file it for you: our courier carries your certified copy in by hand and brings it back.

Our service is $195 for the first document and $20 for each additional document. That includes the $10 Oregon state fee.
Will my original documents be safe?
Your documents are carried by hand between us and the government office. Our courier takes them in and brings them back, so they are not sent through the mail to the state, which is where documents are most often delayed or lost.
Can I get my birth certificate apostilled online?
An apostille is a physical certificate attached to your original document, so the document has to be dropped off or mailed to us. You can start your order online or by phone.
Do I need an apostille?
You need one when a country that belongs to the Hague Apostille Convention asks for your US document. Countries outside the Convention require embassy legalization, which we also handle.
My birth certificate is from another state. Can you still help?
Yes. Each state apostilles its own records, and we process documents for all 50 states. Most states are $195 and take 10 business days, depending on state delays.
Can I get an FBI background check apostilled in Oregon?
Not by the state. FBI background checks are federal documents and go to the US Department of State in Washington, DC. Our courier hand-delivers them: $195 regular in 5+ weeks, or $390 expedited in 10 business days.
Do you translate documents?
Yes. We provide certified document translation in house for $65 per document, with a turnaround of 1 to 2 business days, so you do not need to find a separate translator. We can translate your document and have it apostilled in the same order.
Why use a service if the state office is in nearby Salem?
We check that your document is the right type of copy and correctly notarized before it is filed, which avoids the most common reasons for rejection, and our courier handles the trip and the pickup.
