I cannot recommend this apostille service highly enough. From start to finish, the process was swift, seamless, and incredibly professional. I was on a tight deadline with an international application and feeling pretty stressed and from the very first communication, everything was clear, responsive, and efficient. My documents were handled with care, processed quickly, and returned exactly as promised. What really stood out was how smooth and organized the entire experience was. No back-and-forth, no confusion, just straightforward expertise and follow-through. If you need an apostille and want it done correctly and quickly, this is the service to use. I'm genuinely impressed and very grateful. read more

The team at SF Notary + Apostille are lightning fast & thorough. I had to get a document apostilled while out of the country and thought I had to fly back to get it done... I was so glad that is not the case. Everything was so easy: from reading the guides on how to request my marriage certificate to the transparent quote. I had to gone to check on the status and the document was already being shipped! Wow. Thank you so much for the peace of mind. I would highly recommend their services. read more

I needed a notarized translated police report certified by the California Secretary of State in Sacramento (apostille) and certified by the US Secretary of State in DC. I chose SF Mobile Notary & Expedited Apostille Service, because they are listed as a registered agent in the US Secretary of State website and because of their excellent ratings. They were very responsive on the phone before I hired them. They estimated about three weeks to complete both certifications. I received a FedEx label from them to ship my documents. Two and a half weeks later I received a FedEx envelope with both certifications. I am impressed and delighted with their professional and competent service. read more

I don't know where to start but I will just say exceptional and professional service by John. Went above and beyond my expectations and extremely Informative. Will absolutely use them if I need any service again! read more

Mario Benavides Local Guide·16 reviews·12 photos just now New Wow! SF Notary and Apostille was amazing. I FedExed my marriage license to them from New Hampshire to California, and literally received it with the apostille back in two business days. My email correspondence was with Gary. He walked me through the steps, told me the prices and it was done. I checked online for this service with them vs many other companies. They had great reviews and their prices were fair. I wouldn't hesitate using them again should the need arise. read more

Exceptional, Trustworthy, and Truly Above and Beyond SF Notary + Apostille far exceeded expectations -- and then some! They provided true turnkey support while I was out of state, helping me retrieve difficult-to-access official documents and have them apostilled. I have no idea what I would've done without them. From my initial inquiry to crossing the finish line, they were patient, communicative, and relentless in getting the job done right -- in a job that proved most difficult when multiple setbacks arose that were outside anyone's control. They maintained close communication throughout, always professional, clear, and solution-oriented. Because I was abroad, I had to rely on third-party assistance and remote coordination -- and SF Notary proved to be not just dependable, but exceptional. I could count on them completely. In a moment where things could have easily fallen apart, they delivered a truly seamless, trustworthy solution. This was especially evident when things took another negative turn near the end. I didn't worry or even ask about it, they simply just sorted it out. At that point I knew they would. Their perseverance, honesty, and professionalism set them apart. They genuinely cared about seeing this job through. And for the level of service they provided, their fees were more than fair. If you want something done right -- with integrity, care, and real follow-through -- SF Notary is the place. read more

They make the process incredibly easy. You are emailing and having phone conversations with real people. In 2026 it is so nice to contact a company and speak with humans rather than intake forms and chatbots. Highly recommend using them for your corporate needs. read more

I had an excellent experience with this notary service. From start to finish, they were professional, kind, and true to their word. They handled our documents quickly and efficiently, exactly as promised, which made the whole process stress-free. What really stood out was how friendly and courteous they were while still maintaining great attention to detail. On top of that, their pricing was very reasonable for the quality of service they provided. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, prompt, and trustworthy notary services. read more

Such a smooth process--also felt supportive. Fast and easy adulting. Best part: after James notarized my documents and was leaving, he said goodbye to my cat. read more

John was a lifesaver. I needed some documents from the court retrieved and apostilled and John made multiple trips and spent multiple hours trying to retrieve them, but they couldn't be found. He helped come up with a really creative solution that could be apostilled and used successfully. Very grateful I came across John and highly recommend him! read more

Highly recommend SF Notary and Apostille. Gary and John are fantastic--professional, responsive, and incredibly helpful. They have always been able to turn things around quickly, even in complex situations involving multiple people in different states and documents going abroad. They've assisted us with notarization and apostilles for Sweden, the Philippines, and the Netherlands, among other jurisdictions, and they consistently make what could be a stressful process feel seamless and manageable. Their experience and attention to detail really show. If you need reliable help with international documents, especially complicated ones, Gary and John are the people to call. read more

I needed an apostille for a background check. I worked with Gary. His service was excellent and faster then promised. But what was really impressive was his immediate and helpful response with an issue I had. Nothing says more than professional and outstanding customer service. Their service was worthwhile and headache free. I highly recommend them and will use them again without hesitation. read more

Incredibly knowledgeable and efficient service. I had to get documents apostilled and sent to another country quickly. I thought it would be overwhelming but Gary made it very easy. Thank you! read more

Very responsive service. John Cavalli who provided the service to me works very efficiently. Super efficient when I needed someone to come to where I was and notarize some docs in a hurry. Reasonable price too. read more

One of the best experiences I've had with a company in the Bay Area to date. This gentlemen responded to my emails exceptionally fast, then made a point to get on the phone with me, and totally could've set up an appointment to do the service and charged me $400. Instead because I was traveling so far, he explained the whole process step by step in amazing detail and then told me how to do it myself. For free. It's great to see that some businesses are still run with integrity. Highly recommended. read more

Recently required apostilles for documents. Worked with Gary. Excellent service, fast, efficient, easy.

I had needed an apostille service and contacted John and Gary for help. The team is super understanding and helpful, they provided me all the necessary information and timeline, gave me update along the process and FedEx details when I would receive the documents back. This is great customer service and I am very impressed. Thank you for coming through for us! read more

I had a wonderful experience working with Gary at SF Notary and Apostille recently. My family in China needed some apostilled documents from me quickly. I called SF Notary about my issue, and Gary explained clearly and patiently the services his company could provide and the steps I needed to take. I followed his instructions, and got the documents apostilled and sent to China all within SEVEN DAYS (including a weekend), from the time I called their office to the day my family in China received it. I was amazed, and totally impressed by the speed and the ease of the whole process. I didn't have to make appointments or drive to San Francisco or other far away locations. All I did was to make a 10-minute drive to my local notary and the Fedex Office. Gary's staff took care of the rest. The system they have built is super efficient and fast, and requires minimum effort from their customers. And the price they charge is very reasonable, much more affordable than other options in the Bay Area, whose services and speed cannot be compared with what SF Notary can offer. All in all, it was a great experience working with SF Notary. They really take good care of their clients -- performing efficient jobs as well as superb customer services. From my first phone call to their office and their many email follow-ups, I felt I was their only customer. I highly recommend their services. Many thanks, Gary and SF Notary. read more

We've used this team over and over again. They are incredibly accommodating and do everything they can to manage my expectations and calm my stress over the timing. Very clear on what needs to happen and go out of their way to make it as easy as possible for you. I've mostly spoken to John, but also had some engagement with Gary and Joe and they are all just awesome to work with. Thank you! read more

I had to get an official document picked up, notarized, apostilled, and mailed to me while overseas, and SF Notary + Apostille helped me get the whole thing done in just a few days. Even though my request was fairly complicated, they were able to find a solution and work with me through every step of the process. They were very responsive both by e-mail and by phone, and their follow-ups to each step were thorough and considered any complications that might arise on the next step. Everything went off without a hitch and I was very satisfied with their service. Thanks! read more

These guys! Honestly, all you need to know is that they've got more than 150 five-star reviews when the majority of people only bother to review businesses when they're mad. But no wonder -- the service they provide is unparalleled -- fast, clear, professional, they make the process of obtaining apostilled documents crazy easy. Just a quick rundown -- a Brazilian bank required apostilled certificate of formation, operating agreement and incumbency for an LLC formed in Delaware and headquartered in California. I didn't even need to think it through once I got in touch with SF Notary+ Apostille. I'm so happy to learn that the bank is asking for the same documents for three more entities, so I don't have to wait before working with Gary & John again. read more

These guys are amazing! I've used them several times to get time-sensitive international docs apostille and shipped. They have never failed me! They respond to my emails very quickly and follow up every step of the way without of course being too overbearing. Their prices are also very competitive. Will continue to use them. read more

We are lucky to have this service in the Bay Area ran by such a great company who understands the needs of their clients. What they did for me was they came to my house on short notice, notarized a document that day, sent it in for Apostille the next day, and sent all my documents overseas on my behalf the day after. The overseas lawyers in Asia got all the documents within 5 business days. This is insane speed. My family using an Apostille expeditor in other states won't even have the Apostille back in their hands until after 7 days. Then they still have to mail the documents in themselves. John just does it all for you. Simply amazing. read more

SF Notary provides high quality service! They are knowledgeable, mobile, and can service both local and national needs. I always know when I reach out I will receive a timely response and be able to schedule work expeditiously. They are my go-to service provider for notary and apostille activities, having utilized them for paperwork that had to meet requirements for more than 20 different countries. read more

I was on the BART at 11:45AM realizing I had a document that needed to be notarized and apostilled (didn't even know what that was) and sent to my lawyers in the Republic of Georgia ASAP. By 1:00PM, Gary was at my office in San Francisco with my documents in hand off to the secretary of state's office and then onward to Georgia. Tremendously helpful, responsive service. Will use Gary and SF Notary + Apostille again and again thanks to this fantastic experience. read more

I was very impressed with how quick and easy it was to get my documents apostiled internationally. Thank you!

Great service, efficient, professional and knowledgeable! Highly recommend...location is very convenient and John was helpful and friendly.

Great service! They traveled to me so it was very convenient and quick, and I received my apostille documents soon after signing

First Time Customer I contacted John after seeing a variety of Mobile Notaries to choose from through Yelp. I was glad that I did. I really wanted a seasoned and professional notary that could notarize escrow/loan docs for our client quickly and without any issues. Pros: -John contacted me quickly through Yelp messaging. -Provided the services as needed without any issues. -Reasonably and competitively priced. -John was able to scan the docs over to us for processing as he Fed Ex the originals to the Title company. -Easy to pay/invoice/credit card system. No Cons. I would recommend John for future mobile notary needs! read more

What a great team! I was fortunate enough to work with John and Gary. I was unsure what an apostille was, Gary called me within the hour of me sending a request from their website and thoroughly explained what needed to be done. John replied to all of emails promptly and made sure my documents made it to the Secretary of State to be apostilled. I will definitely use their service in the future, highly recommend! read more
