Washington State notary public serving Greater Seattle — in-office signings in Bothell, mobile notary across Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, Medina, Kirkland, Lynnwood, Everett, Bellingham and Blaine, plus expedited apostille routing through Olympia.

## A Washington State notary public who handles your document end-to-end.

When a U.S.-issued or U.S.-notarized document needs to land in Italy, Brazil, China, Ukraine or any of the 120+ Hague Apostille Convention countries, the apostille must be issued by a Secretary of State. I notarize your document in Bothell or anywhere across Greater Seattle, then route it through Olympia myself — which is why I can promise turnarounds measured in business days, not weeks.

- **24h** — Expedited apostille available
- **≤7d** — Standard apostille turnaround

## Types of documents we can work with

If your document needs a notary seal followed by an apostille for use abroad, it's almost certainly something we handle every week. The most common categories:

- **Powers of attorney** — Both for real estate deals and any other matters — corporate, family, banking, court representation.
- **Affidavits** — For inheritance and estate proceedings, and child travel permission letters required by foreign border authorities.
- **Certified true copies** — Notarized true copies of passports, diplomas, corporate records and any other original document.
- **Buying & selling property** — U.S. real-estate transactions and equivalent deals in any of the 120+ Hague Convention countries.

## Apostille. Three speeds. One promise.

Pick the urgency that matches your deadline. Pricing is transparent and quoted up front — no surprises after we touch the document.

Prices are quoted in U.S. dollars. We price-match any quote from a comparable Washington State notary and may adjust or waive the fee in humanitarian or compassionate circumstances.

## You will receive documents in two ways.

You will get both ink on paper for the foreign authority, and a digitally certified PDF to expedite your deal and give recipients 100% trust and confidence.

### Digitally signed PDF

An Adobe Approved Trust List (AATL) certified PDF — recognized as a legally valid signature anywhere Adobe Acrobat is trusted. Delivered by email the same day the apostille is issued.

- Adobe Approved Trust List certificate
- Verifiable in Adobe Reader anywhere in the world
- Best for filings that accept e-signed originals

### Wet-signed and notarized paper

Original paper with hand-applied notary seal and physical apostille. We hand it to the DHL or FedEx counter on the same or next business day for delivery to any destination country served by the carrier.

- True wet-ink signature and notary seal
- Dropped at the courier on the same/next business day
- Tracking number sent to your inbox

Note: this is in-person notarization in Bothell or on-site anywhere in the Greater Seattle area — not Remote Online Notarization (RON). Some destination countries don't accept RON, so wet-ink remains the safest default.

## Local notary services in Greater Seattle.

Beyond apostille, I handle the everyday notarial work that Greater Seattle residents and small businesses need — acknowledgments, jurats, certified copies, loan signings, and witnessing. In-office in Bothell at the Washington statutory rate, or mobile to your home, office, or care facility.

- **In-office in Bothell** — $15 per signature at the Washington statutory rate. By appointment only. No walk-ins.
- **Mobile across Greater Seattle** — Travel fee from $75. Seattle, Bellevue, Redmond, Medina, Kirkland, Bothell, Lynnwood, Everett, Bellingham, Blaine — and points between.
- **Loan signings** — $150 flat for refinance, purchase, HELOC, and seller packages. Background-checked and trusted by major title companies.

## How it works

1. Email the document and the destination country to notary@andrii.co. Confirm with the receiving party (or their attorney) which notarial certificate they require — acknowledgment, jurat, certified copy — and forward those requirements to us. Washington law does not allow a non-attorney notary to choose the certificate type for you.
2. We meet — in my Bothell office or at a location of your choice within the Greater Seattle area — and you sign in front of me.
3. A team member will drive the documents to the WA Secretary of State for the apostille certificate.
4. You will receive the apostilled, digitally signed PDF of your document by email.
5. The wet-signed and notarized original document will be on its way to the recipient by DHL / FedEx with tracking.

## Common questions

### Does my destination country accept the U.S. apostille?

If the country is a member of the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention — yes. That's 120+ countries, including Italy, Spain, Germany, France, Ukraine, China, Brazil, Mexico, Japan, South Korea, India, and most of the EU and Latin America. Tell us the country up front and we will confirm before we meet.

### Do I need certified translation into English?

No. Washington does not require the content of your document to be translated for apostille — only the notary certificate must be in English alone or in dual languages with English as one. This saves significant time and cost compared to jurisdictions that require certified translation.

### What kinds of documents do you handle?

As a Washington State notary, my apostille service covers documents that I notarize directly here in Washington. Some categories have to come from a different authority — listed below so you don't lose time.

**I can notarize and apostille**

- Powers of attorney (real estate, banking, corporate, family)
- Affidavits and statutory declarations
- Parental / child travel consent letters
- Single-status / freedom-to-marry affidavits
- Corporate resolutions, board minutes, certificates of incumbency
- Acknowledgments of signatures on contracts and deeds
- Certified true copies of original documents you bring to the meeting (passports, diplomas, transcripts, corporate records)

**Get these from the issuing authority**

- U.S. federal documents — FBI background checks, IRS letters, USCIS records, U.S. passports. These need an apostille from the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C., not the WA Secretary of State.
- U.S. vital records — birth, death and marriage certificates. Order a certified copy from the state registrar where the event occurred and apostille that. [Or use our retrieval service →](https://andrii.co/en/vital-records/index.md)
- Documents notarized or issued outside Washington — the apostille comes from that state's or province's own authority, not Olympia. [Every U.S., Canadian and Mexican authority →](https://andrii.co/en/handbook/apostille/index.md)

Not sure which bucket your document falls into? Email a scan and I'll tell you whether I can handle it or point you to the right authority.

### Is this Remote Online Notarization (RON)?

No. Every signature is in person, with a wet-ink notary seal. Many destination countries reject RON apostilles, so we deliberately stick with the in-person, wet-ink method.

### Can you prepare a document for me?

> I am not an attorney licensed to practice law in this state. I am not allowed to draft legal records, give advice on legal matters, including immigration, or charge a fee for those activities.

### How is payment handled?

Visa / Mastercard, Venmo, PayPal, ACH transfer, or cash. The expedited and priority options require prepayment; the standard option can be paid after the meeting. Invoicing available for corporate clients.

## Tell me your deadline. I'll tell you when we can meet.

Most emails answered within several hours during business hours. If your deadline is tomorrow, call — don't email.

> **RCW 42.45.230(5):** I am not an attorney licensed to practice law in this state. I am not allowed to draft legal records, give advice on legal matters, including immigration, or charge a fee for those activities.
