My Florida Apostille
Costos & Precios
Muchos clientes nos preguntan por qué cobramos $220 si la tarifa estatal es de solo $10. La respuesta es honesta: lo que pagamos al estado es solo una parte. Aquí está el desglose real de lo que está incluido en el precio.
La diferencia neta en dinero es $187.60 — eso es lo que paga por evitar 5–7 semanas de espera, una hora de papeleo, y el riesgo de perder los $32.40 si el estado rechaza su envío.
Nuestro precio de $220 incluye la tarifa estatal de $10, la presentación en persona en el mostrador del Departamento de Estado en Tallahassee, el envío de regreso por FedEx, la revisión del documento antes de presentarlo (para evitar rechazos), el formulario completado correctamente, el cheque emitido correctamente, y soporte por teléfono durante todo el proceso. Y el tiempo total es 5–7 días hábiles, no 5–7 semanas.
Si usted tiene tiempo de sobra y solo necesita apostillar un solo documento sin urgencia, la opción de hacerlo usted mismo es completamente válida — solo asegúrese de seguir todas las reglas del Departamento de Estado para evitar el rechazo. Si necesita varios documentos, tiene una fecha límite, o simplemente no quiere lidiar con el formulario, los cheques, los sobres prepagados, y la espera de cinco a siete semanas — nuestro servicio existe para eso.
Muchos clientes — especialmente quienes solicitan ciudadanía italiana o sucesiones internacionales — necesitan apostillar varios documentos a la vez. Los precios por volumen están diseñados para esos casos.
Para ser completamente honestos, estos son los gastos relacionados que usted puede tener antes o después de la apostilla, y que nosotros no cubrimos.
Antes de apostillar, usted necesita una copia certificada del documento del condado o del estado. Costo típico: $9–$15 por copia. Tiempo: 1–4 semanas dependiendo del condado. Estos pasos son responsabilidad suya.
Diplomas, transcripciones, poderes y declaraciones juradas requieren notarización antes de la apostilla, y la notarización no está incluida en el precio. Puede notarizar en línea con nosotros ($40 el primer documento: $10 de notarización + $30 de plataforma tecnológica; $20 cada adicional) o en su cita en West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa o Clearwater (cargo aparte).
Si el país receptor requiere traducción, normalmente debe estar certificada por el traductor, notarizada y apostillada; la traducción cuenta como un documento más en nuestro precio. Algunos países exigen un traductor oficial local. El costo de la traducción lo cobra el traductor.
Si necesita apostillar un documento federal — como una verificación de antecedentes del FBI o un certificado del IRS — eso lo hace el Departamento de Estado de Estados Unidos en Washington D.C., no nosotros. Servicios separados.
La cita en persona en West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, Tampa o Clearwater no tiene cargo adicional — mismo precio de $220 por documento, con revisión en persona antes de presentar.
FedEx Standard de regreso dentro de EE. UU. está incluido en el precio; el envío internacional cuesta $100 fijo por pedido. Si necesita envío express (FedEx Priority Overnight u otra opción urgente), eso es un costo adicional. Llámenos para cotizar.
Antes de la apostilla hay dos costos: la copia certificada que emite la oficina de su documento y la tarifa estatal. La tarifa estatal está incluida en nuestros $220; la copia certificada la pide usted.
¿Por qué $20? Cuando la copia la certifica un Clerk of Court, el Departamento de Estado agrega un certificado de $10 que confirma la autoridad del Clerk. Con nosotros, cualquier documento cuesta $220 todo incluido — $380 por dos, $160 cada uno desde tres.
Sin cargos ocultos. Sin recargos de urgencia. Tarifa estatal y envío de regreso incluidos. Precios por volumen para varios documentos.

My Florida Apostille ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you use myfloridaapostille.com or our apostille service, how we use it, and what choices you have.
When you place an order, we collect: your name, email address, phone number, return shipping address, the type and number of documents you're ordering, the destination country, and any notes you include with your order. We also receive payment information indirectly through Stripe, our payment processor — we never see or store your full card number.
When you visit our website, we collect standard analytics data: IP address, browser type, pages visited, and referring URLs. This data is used to improve the site and is not tied to your personal identity.
We share your information only with the third-party service providers necessary to fulfill your order:
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your data with marketers or advertisers.
You ship physical documents to our office for processing. We treat your original documents as confidential and store them securely until they are filed with the Florida Department of State. We do not retain copies of your documents after the apostille is returned to you.
We retain order records (name, email, order details) for seven years to comply with tax and business record requirements. You may request deletion of your data at any time by emailing orders@myfloridaapostille.com, subject to our legal retention obligations.
Our website uses minimal cookies for basic functionality and analytics. We do not use advertising cookies or tracking pixels from third-party ad networks.

By using myfloridaapostille.com or our apostille service, you agree to these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully before placing an order.
My Florida Apostille is an independent document service that facilitates apostille processing through the Florida Department of State on behalf of customers. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Florida Department of State, the U.S. Department of State, or any government agency. We are a private business providing convenience services.
You agree to:
Our standard turnaround is five to seven business days from the moment we receive your documents at our office. This timeline depends on third-party factors outside our control, including FedEx transit times and the Florida Department of State's processing schedule. We are not liable for delays caused by carriers, state offices, weather, holidays, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
If the Florida Department of State rejects your document, we will contact you within one business day to discuss options. Some rejections can be resolved same-day at the counter; others require new documents from the issuing agency. Rejections do not entitle you to a refund of the state filing fee or our service fee, because both the fee and the labor have been performed.
Documents shipped via FedEx are insured up to $100 by default. For irreplaceable documents, you may purchase additional FedEx Declared Value coverage when you hand your envelope to FedEx. We are not liable for loss or damage during transit beyond FedEx's published insurance coverage.
Payment is due at the time of order placement and is processed by Stripe. Refunds are governed by our separate Refund Policy.
All content on myfloridaapostille.com, including text, graphics, logos, and design, is the property of My Florida Apostille and protected by U.S. copyright law. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our written permission.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim related to our services is limited to the amount you paid us for the order in question. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost opportunities, missed deadlines, or visa application denials.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Any disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Leon County, Florida.
We may update these Terms at any time. The "Last updated" date reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

We want every customer to be satisfied. Because our service involves third-party fees and irreversible work performed on your behalf, refunds depend on when you cancel.
To request a refund, contact us by:
Include your order number (from your confirmation email) and a brief explanation. We will respond within one business day.
Approved refunds are processed within 5–10 business days to the original payment method. Your bank or card issuer may take additional time to display the refund.
If your documents are damaged or lost in transit by FedEx, FedEx insurance applies (default $100, or up to the Declared Value coverage you purchased). We will work with you to file a FedEx claim. Our service fee is non-refundable in these cases because the loss occurred outside our control.
If you have questions about our refund policy before placing an order, please contact us — we'd rather answer questions upfront than handle refunds later.
