If you’re looking for a drivers license apostille near me look no further because we only need three things from you to complete the expedited Texas apostille drivers license copy process.
First, mail us or drop off at our office a color photocopy of your drivers license (can be a driver’s license copy from any country in the world) and you must also include a signed certified copy affidavit from the driver’s license holder (you) that has been properly notarized by a Texas notary public (you cannot use a notary public from any other state or foreign country).
Please DO NOT mail or drop off to us your actual physical driver’s license because driver’s license apostille requirements do not require this.
The Texas Secretary of State will reject any non-recordable document (drivers license copies) if the notarization on the non-recordable document is not a physically wet ink signed and stamped by a Texas notary public or signed and stamped electronically by a licensed Texas e-notary, virtual notary, remote notary, or online notary services company.
The affiant’s signature (the drivers license holder who will sign the driver’s license copy affidavit in front of a Texas notary public) on the drivers license certified copy affidavit must be the original. Meaning the signatures on the driver’s license certified copy affidavit that the Texas notary public witnesses cannot be a copied or a automated autopen type signature.
The Texas Secretary of State office will reject any non-recordable document (driver’s license copies) if the drivers license notarization was not completed by a Texas notary public and if the driver’s license holder (you) does not make and sign a certified copy affidavit statement like the example driver’s license certified copy affidavit template to use below.

The above Texas notary jurat verbiage must be written in all English on your driver’s license certified copy affidavit. The actual drivers license copy content can be in any non-English language (say you got it translated) but the entire Texas notary jurat text cannot be in a different or translated language other than English.
If the Texas notary jurat verbiage that is used on your driver’s license certified copy affidavit is not 100% in English your driver’s license copy will be rejected by the Secretary of State of Texas.
Second mail or drop off at our office a prepaid FedEx or UPS return shipping label (we do not accept air waybills) that you can create and purchase online at FedEx.com or UPS.com from anywhere in the world without needing to have an existing account set up with them. You can also visit any UPS Store or FedEx Office location to purchase a prepaid shipping label as well.
DO NOT use the United States Postal Service (USPS) because they lose things constantly
(potentially your drivers license copy) and are completely unreliable and slow.
The reason we require a prepaid return shipping label is so we can mail your drivers license apostille back to you or to wherever and whomever in the world that you want it shipped to.
On the prepaid return FedEx or UPS shipping label that you must provide us please list the senders (from) mailing address as your name/address or any U.S address because you cannot list our company name or address as the from/sender for liability reasons. Then for the receiver’s address (to) just list the name/address of where and who you want your apostille driver’s license authentication mailed back to.
Click on the below links for easy step-by-step screenshot directions on how to create a prepaid FedEx or UPS shipping label online in only a few minutes.
If it’s an international shipment (USA to another foreign country) please also provide us with a customs invoice (also called a commercial invoice). See the two links below to download custom prefilled out for you templates that shipping companies (FedEx, UPS) will normally require you to include whenever you ship documents internationally to certain countries.
If you or someone on your behalf will be returning to our office to pick up your drivers license apostille you of course won’t need to provide us with a prepaid return shipping label.
For the fastest possible turnaround time, we can hand deliver your apostilled driver’s license right to your home, office, business or hotel the very same day that we apostilled it for an additional courier fee.
The courier cost will depend on what city and zip code in Texas you need us to travel to. This is for situations where you don’t have the time to travel back to our office to pick up your drivers license apostille or you don’t want it mailed anywhere.
Third, you will need to download, sign, and mail or drop off at our office our rush Texas apostille service order form that can be instantly downloaded by clicking on the blue Texas apostille services order button below.
We cannot accept or process your drivers license apostille request by mail or drop off until we receive a properly completed Texas apostille service order form from you.
If you will be dropping your driver’s license copy off at our office in person you must bring this completed Texas apostille services order form in with you along with any other documents that you want us to rush Texas apostille for you.
When you arrive at our office walk up to our front lobby receptionist desk area and tell them that you have a drivers license copy to dropoff for Apostille Texas. Detailed directions and pictures of our office and office building are on our contact us page as well for you to view.
Please also understand your driver’s license copy will not and cannot be apostilled onsite at our office so this isn’t apostille walk-in service.
The only legal and government entity in Texas or in the world that can issue Texas apostille certificates is the Texas Secretary of State which is where we will rush file your driver’s license photocopy at on your behalf.
We must receive your driver’s license copies by mail or dropped off at our office by noon CST Monday-Friday (excluding all federal and state holidays) to be able to provide you with same day Texas apostille services. If we receive your driver’s license documentation after that cutoff time don’t worry we’ll simply attempt to file it with the state on the next business day.
Lastly, we do not have these Texas apostille services order forms available at our front desk receptionist area.
So if you choose to drop off your driver’s license documents at our office please make sure to print out and bring this Texas apostille services order form in with you.
