HAWAII APOSTILLE

Apostille Services in Hawaii — Fast, Secure, Nationwide

For Hawaii residents planning a move abroad, marrying overseas, pursuing dual citizenship, or filing corporate paperwork internationally, apostille authentication is handled through the Office of the Lieutenant Governor of Hawaii. Hawaii apostilles are issued by the Office of the Lieutenant Governor in Honolulu — not the Secretary of State — a legacy of Hawaii's unique territorial-era government structure. We manage submission, tracking, and international return shipping.

From $150 / document State fees + U.S. shipping included

Service fee includes state filing fees and U.S. domestic return shipping via 2-day FedEx (UPS used for federal documents only). International return shipping available for an additional fee.
