The process for a true copy

  1. We notarize a true copy of your original document.
  2. U.S. Department of State apostille. Federal documents apostille federally — the U.S. Department of State issues the apostille.
  3. Ready to use in Macao.

Frequently asked questions

Does Macao accept a U.S. apostille?
Yes. Macao 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.
How long does it take to legalize a document for Macao?
A typical single-document order takes about 3 business days once we have your documents, so an order placed today would be ready around September 25, 2026. Timelines exclude shipping and can vary with government processing and consular queues.
How much does it cost to legalize a true copy for Macao?
Our fee for a single true copy for Macao starts at $441.00. 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.
