The notary. Every application is reviewed first; the notary decides the appropriate route for your document and the country where it will be used. If a request cannot be fulfilled, you hear it before you pay anything.
You receive a written quote after the review: our service fee, any notary and authority fees (passed through without markup), translation and shipping as separate lines. Nothing is charged before you accept. Express – twice as fast – is optional.
