Frequently asked questions
Does Australia accept a U.S. apostille?
Yes. Australia is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so a U.S. document needs only a single apostille — there is no embassy or consulate step.
Where do I get my assignment notarized?
Sign it before a notary in Massachusetts. The notary must attach one of Massachusetts’s approved notarial certificates — a jurat or an acknowledgment — worded exactly as the state requires, since the wrong wording is the most common cause of rejection.
How long does it take to legalize a document for Australia?
A typical single-document order takes about 6 business days once we have your documents, so an order placed today would be ready around September 30, 2026. Timelines exclude shipping and can vary with government processing and consular queues.
How much does it cost to legalize a assignment for Australia?
Our fee for a single assignment for Australia starts at $295.60. That excludes document scanning ($1 per page) and return or forwarding shipping; applicable government and consular fees are included. Use the estimator above to price multiple documents.
Do I need to send you the original documents?
Yes. Apostilles and consular legalization are affixed to original, wet-ink or officially certified documents, so we work with the physical originals. We return the finished, legalized originals to you — or ship them anywhere in the world, including directly to your foreign agent.
