How Do You Pay for an Apostille
Official fees are paid in two places: the notarization fee at the notary office and the certification fee at the Foreign Affairs Office counter, both accepting cards and mobile payment. Agent fees are usually prepaid and require particular care.
Key Points
- Notarization fee: paid at the notary office

- Agent fees: usually prepaid, require a written contract
- Official receipts are issued for both official fees
- Red flag: full prepayment without any contract
