Apostille Services in Boston, Massachusetts

For documents that need to be recognized outside of the United States, an apostille certificate may be required. An apostille authenticates a document for use in another country under the Hague Convention of 1961.

What Documents Require Apostilles?

Vital Records: Birth certificates, marriage certificates, death certificates

Educational Records: Diplomas, transcripts, enrollment letters, certificates of attendance

Business Records: Corporate bylaws, powers of attorney, certificates of incorporation

Legal Records: Court documents, adoption papers, notarized affidavits

Background Checks: FBI background checks, state criminal records
At Colon Constable Services, we handle the entire process, from notarization to submission, directly with the Massachusetts Secretary of the Commonwealth and, when necessary, the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C.

Apostille for Hague vs. Non-Hague Countries

The type of authentication you need depends on whether the receiving country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention.

Hague Countries: Require an apostille certificate. Examples include Spain, Italy, France, and Brazil.

Non-Hague Countries: Require a different form of authentication, often involving the U.S. Department of State and the foreign country’s embassy or consulate. Examples include Canada, China, and the United Arab Emirates.
Our team at CCS navigates these differences for you, ensuring your documents are properly prepared and accepted abroad.

Local Expertise: Serving Boston & Massachusetts

What sets Colon Constable Services apart from online-only providers is our local, in-person expertise. We live and work in Boston, giving us direct access to vital records offices, courthouses, universities, and the Secretary of State.

We’ve helped:

Students from Harvard University, Boston College, Northeastern, MIT, Tufts, and Lesley University apostille their diplomas and transcripts for international job opportunities.

Families in Roxbury, Dorchester, and Jamaica Plain secure apostilles for marriage and birth certificates for immigration purposes.

Businesses in the Financial District and Seaport District authenticate corporate documents for international expansion.
This hands-on, Boston-based approach ensures faster turnaround times and fewer errors than out-of-state providers who only rely on mail.
