Embassy legalizations
Wisconsin-issued public documents are apostilled by the Wisconsin Secretary of State for use in Hague Convention countries. NotarySeal apostille agents in Milwaukee pick up your documents, file, track, and return them by courier — no lost weeks to the mailroom.
Federal documents (FBI background checks, IRS letters, FDA certificates) require the US State Department in DC. For destinations outside the Hague Convention — UAE, China, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam — full embassy legalization is required. Milwaukee agents handle both paths.
Standard Wisconsin Secretary of State processing runs 5–15 business days. NotarySeal Milwaukee agents typically deliver in 5–10 days, or 24–72 hours with rush.
State filing fees are $5–$50 per document. Full-service Milwaukee agents typically charge $75–$200 per document including pickup, filing, and return courier.
If the destination country is in the 1961 Hague Convention, you need an apostille. Otherwise you need full embassy legalization. Either is handled.
Vital records typically need a certified copy issued within the past few months. Notarized documents can be apostilled directly.
