Boston
Apostille in Boston and Cambridge.
Boston has the state apostille office itself, at One Ashburton Place near the State House. If you live or work in the city, you can file there yourself, or let us stand in line for you.
We file with the Boston office for standard and same-day orders and send your documents back by FedEx, UPS, DHL or USPS. Our Boston apostille page covers the city in detail, and the Boston apostille office guide has the counter rules if you want to go yourself.
Western Massachusetts
Apostille in Springfield, MA and Western Massachusetts.
You can get an apostille in Springfield, MA without driving to Boston. Mail your documents to us from Springfield, Holyoke, Northampton, Pittsfield or anywhere in the Pioneer Valley and the Berkshires, and we file them and send them back by tracked mail.
For a Springfield birth certificate, get a certified copy from the Springfield City Clerk or the Registry of Vital Records, not a hospital copy. For anything private, such as a power of attorney or an affidavit, have it notarized by a Massachusetts notary first. Then order online and mail it in. If you need it fast, same-day service applies once your documents are in our hands by 11 AM ET, so overnight courier is the usual route from Western Massachusetts.
Prefer to do it yourself? The Secretary of the Commonwealth has a regional office in Springfield that also processes certifications for Western Massachusetts. Check its current address, hours and payment rules on sec.state.ma.us before you go.
Filing yourself
State offices if you want to file yourself.
You don’t need us to get a Massachusetts apostille. The state fee is $6 per document, and these are the offices that handle it.
Boston (main office)
Secretary of the Commonwealth, Commissions Section, One Ashburton Place, Room 1719, Boston, MA 02108. Up to three documents per customer at the counter; four or more are ready after 3 PM the next business day.
Springfield (Western MA)
A regional office of the Secretary of the Commonwealth that also processes certifications. Confirm the address and hours on sec.state.ma.us before going.
Fall River (Southeastern MA)
The Southeastern Massachusetts regional office, convenient for the South Coast and Cape. Confirm the address and hours on sec.state.ma.us before going.
By mail, the Commonwealth’s turnaround is two to three weeks. You send the Apostille and Certification Authentication Form, a check payable to “Commonwealth of Massachusetts” and a prepaid return envelope. Our step-by-step guide walks through it, and our Massachusetts apostille service does it for you.

Do you charge more for towns far from Boston?
No. The apostille price is the same everywhere in Massachusetts: $99 per document standard and $249 same day, state fee included. Return shipping is the same too: FedEx Ground $25, or USPS First-Class free. Full pricing.
Can I get a same-day apostille if I live outside Boston?
Yes, if your documents are in our hands by 11 AM ET on a business day; they are ready by 5 PM. From farther away, that means sending them by overnight courier the day before. Next business day service needs them by 3 PM ET. How same-day works.
My document is from one town and I live in another. Does that matter?
No. What matters is that the document was issued or notarized in Massachusetts. A birth certificate from the Worcester city clerk, notarized papers from Cape Cod and a court record from Springfield all go to the same state apostille office, and we can file them together.
