Rush apostille FAQ
What is the fastest possible apostille for Spain?
For US state documents (birth certificates, degrees, state criminal records) the speed depends on the issuing state office: each publishes its own processing times, and only some offer an official expedited channel. Our priority handling speeds up our part (same-day submission, courier) but does not change government timings. For FBI background checks: there is no federal rush SLA — the Dept. of State currently processes mailed federal apostilles within five weeks, and a seven-business-day in-person option applies only to the Department's specified circumstances. For documents from Latin America, timelines vary by country.
I have my FBI certificate but no apostille — how fast can you do it?
If you have a valid FBI Identity History Summary, we can submit it to the US Department of State on the same day we receive it — but there is no general guaranteed priority route. Processing follows the Department's published timelines (mail currently within five weeks from receipt; the seven-business-day in-person option applies only to specified circumstances). We confirm the current official timeline before accepting the order.
Can I get a same-day apostille for Spain?
Same-day apostilles are possible for some US state documents in certain states (e.g., California, Texas, Florida) if you drop off originals at the Secretary of State office in person, or if we have an authorized agent on file. Contact us to check your specific state and document.
Do rush services cost more?
Yes. Rush processing incurs additional fees: government expedite fees paid to the apostille authority, priority courier costs, and our rush handling fee. We quote the exact total before you commit.
Spain requires certified translation — can you rush that too?
Yes. Our certified Spanish translation service can be completed within 24 hours or same-day for apostilled documents we receive digitally. This is included in our rush package.
