USPS record
Official records connected to USPS stay with the USPS review, certified-copy, apostille, or legalization handling.
Official sources
Check the state source and HCCH first
Use the state source for fees, forms, and mailing rules. Use HCCH for the destination-country side. The destination country and the issuing authority determine whether the route is apostille or legalization, including whether the handling stays at the state level or moves through a federal authority.
State document handling
USPS records stay with USPS handling.
1583 Pro helps with USPS documents. If the same order also includes a signer-created document, that document may use a Florida online notary public through Notary Geek, while the USPS record stays with the USPS apostille handling.
Notarized document
Signer-created documents in the same order may use Notary Geek's online notary workflow, commonly through Florida online notarization, before their own authentication step.
One quote, clear handling
We confirm how each document will be handled before final payment so the package is transparent.
Public verification
Proof you can check.
Use official records and public profiles to verify the service. Florida online notaries handle the online notary step. Signers outside the U.S. can use a non-U.S. passport and do not need a Social Security Number. Use the official state source for document requirements, then use the business and Florida verification links if the package also includes an online notary step.

Use the official state source for the document requirements themselves. If the order also includes an online notary step, use both Florida records together: one covers the online notary and provider record, and the other covers the underlying notary commission.

How it works
Simple details first, then a clear answer.
Most questions about price, timing, and next steps can be answered once the document source, destination country, and deadline are clear.
1. Send the document facts
Start with the document type, issuing authority, destination country, deadline, and shipping needs.
2. We check the right fit
1583 Pro exists to help customers fill out and generate USPS Form 1583. Notary or support steps come after the wizard when the mailbox provider requires notarization, ID review, or clarification.
3. You get one quote
We separate apostille and non-Hague legalization requirements before payment so the next step is clear.
State source and HCCH
Use the state source and HCCH together.
Start with the linked state government page for current fees, forms, and mailing rules. Then use HCCH for the destination-country side. The customer is not deciding apostille versus legalization. The destination country and the issuing authority determine the correct route, including whether the handling stays with a state office or moves through a federal authority.
