How a Bonita Springs apostille works.

There is no state apostille counter in Bonita Springs or anywhere else in Lee County — only the Florida Department of State in Tallahassee issues them. We hand-carry every Bonita Springs order there and get it back to you in five to seven business days, instead of the five to seven weeks a mailed-in request usually takes.

Most Bonita Springs orders start with a Lee County record: birth and death certificates from the Florida Department of Health in Lee County, and marriage licenses, divorce decrees and court records from the Lee County Clerk of Court & Comptroller. Anything signed in front of a Florida notary — a power of attorney, an affidavit, a single-status letter, a translation — can be apostilled as well.

Our nearest appointment office, Boca Raton, is about 125 miles away, so almost every Bonita Springs customer orders online — the documents travel by FedEx both ways and nothing about the service changes.

What Bonita Springs customers apostille most.

Canada & retiring abroad

Canada has accepted apostilles since January 2024, which simplified paperwork for snowbirds and dual citizens. Portugal, Spain and Costa Rica residency files need apostilled vital records too.

Property closings abroad

Bonita Springs owners selling or buying overseas send an apostilled power of attorney so someone else can sign at the closing. We can notarize it online first.

Work visas abroad

Diplomas, marriage certificates and FDLE background checks for work permits in the UAE, Qatar, Spain, Germany and South Korea.

Common questions.

Not a state one. Florida apostilles are issued only by the Florida Department of State in Tallahassee, so no office in Lee County can issue one. Our Naples office, about 11 miles away, takes Bonita Springs orders by phone at (239) 296-2396; you order online, drop your envelope at a Bonita Springs FedEx, and we file it in person in Tallahassee.
Birth and death certificates: the Florida Department of Health in Lee County, the Florida Bureau of Vital Statistics in Jacksonville, or VitalChek — the state fee for these is $10. Marriage licenses, divorce decrees, court records and deeds: the Lee County Clerk of Court & Comptroller — $20 state fee for a clerk-certified copy, or $10 for a marriage certificate ordered from Vital Statistics. Both fees are included in our $220. We don't accept vital records certified before 2014: the signature on file at the Department of State must be the current registrar's, so an older copy needs to be re-ordered first.
