Mistakes that get Connecticut apostilles rejected
- Using an old paper order form. Connecticut now requires the online application.
- A photocopy. Connecticut needs an original or a certified copy.
- A document from another state. Connecticut only authenticates Connecticut documents.
- Assuming an e-Apostille works everywhere. Confirm the recipient accepts it before choosing one.
- Federal documents. FBI checks and other federal records go to the U.S. Department of State.

Connecticut documents and Boston clients
Frequently asked questions
Can Massachusetts apostille a Connecticut document?
No. Connecticut documents are apostilled by Connecticut. We handle it for you.
Does Connecticut issue electronic apostilles?
For some eligible documents. We'll confirm whether yours qualifies and whether your recipient accepts one.
Do I need to file online myself?
No. We handle the filing for you.
Can you translate my Connecticut document?
Yes. We arrange certified translation after the apostille, so the translation covers both.
Do you work with clients outside Massachusetts?
Yes. Clients mail us documents from all over the U.S. and abroad.
Do you also handle Massachusetts and federal documents in the same order?
Yes. We route each document to the right office and return everything together.
What if my country doesn't accept apostilles?
We handle the full embassy legalization chain instead. See Embassy Legalization.
Can I sign a new document in Massachusetts instead?
Often, yes. A document you sign now can usually be notarized here and get a Massachusetts apostille, which can be faster.
