When you cannot wait weeks for a Florida apostille, Online Florida Apostille delivers. Our expedited service provides in-person submission at the Florida Department of State in Tallahassee — no mailing, no waiting in the 4–6 week government queue. We hand-deliver your documents to the Apostille Division and pick them up the next business day.
Important update: The Florida Department of State changed its policy and no longer allows third-party apostille companies to pick up documents the same day they are submitted. All third-party services must now submit documents one day and pick them up the next business day. Any company still advertising “same-day apostille pickup” is not being transparent about the current process. Our timelines below reflect the actual current policy.
How Our Expedited Florida Apostille Works
- Order by phone or online — Call 954-999-4933 or complete our online order form. Tell us which documents you need apostilled and where they will be used.
- Send your documents — Ship your original documents to our Tallahassee agent via FedEx overnight, or use our Remote Online Notarization (RON) service to skip shipping entirely.
- In-person submission at the Florida Department of State — Our agent walks into the Apostille Division and submits your documents in person at the counter. Documents are picked up the next business day.
- Overnight return shipping — Once picked up, your apostilled documents are shipped back overnight via FedEx. You receive them the next business morning.
What Makes Our Expedited Service Possible
Most apostille services mail your documents to the Florida Department of State and wait in the standard 4–6 week processing queue. We skip that queue entirely. Online Florida Apostille maintains dedicated agents in Tallahassee who appear at the Florida Department of State Apostille Division in person. They submit your documents at the counter and pick them up the next business day — bypassing the weeks-long mail processing backlog.
