Apostille & Authentication Services
Maryland apostille, federal authentication, and embassy legalization — completed by hand-delivery to DC instead of mail.
Three Routes to International Document Authentication
Every document has a specific route depending on its origin and destination. On Demand Dox handles all three:
Maryland Apostille — documents from Maryland agencies (birth, marriage, death records; court documents; business filings). Apostille from the Secretary of State in Annapolis.
Federal Apostille — documents from federal sources (FBI background checks, IRS letters, Social Security records, federal court documents). Apostille from the U.S. Department of State in Washington, DC.
Embassy Legalization — documents going to non-Hague countries (most of the world). Requires state apostille + federal authentication + embassy signature in DC — completed in person.
