The office is located at 1700 Broadway, Suite 550, Denver, CO 80290 and processes apostille requests for all documents originating from Colorado, including birth certificates, marriage certificates, court orders, corporate filings, notarized documents, and academic credentials. The standard processing time for a Colorado apostille is 3–5 business days. Expedited processing is available and typically takes 1–2 business days for an additional fee. State filing fees and processing times vary — we provide a complete cost breakdown before processing your request. ### What Documents Can Be Apostilled in Colorado? The Colorado Secretary of State can apostille any document that bears an original signature from a Colorado-commissioned notary public, or any document issued by a Colorado government authority. This includes certified vital records (birth, marriage, death, divorce), court-issued documents (court orders, judgments, custody agreements), corporate filings (articles of incorporation, certificates of good standing, operating agreements), and notarized documents (affidavits, powers of attorney, declarations). ### Do I Need to Live in Colorado to Get a Colorado Apostille? No. The apostille is based on where the document was _issued_, not where you currently reside. If your birth certificate was issued in Colorado, it must be apostilled through the Colorado Secretary of State — even if you now live in another state. We handle Colorado apostille processing from anywhere in the United States, so you never need to visit Denver in person. ### Federal vs. State Apostille: Which Do You Need? The Colorado Secretary of State only apostilles documents issued at the state level. Federal documents — such as FBI background checks, documents notarized by federal officials, or federal court records — must be apostilled through the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. If you're unsure which authority handles your document, our free document review will determine the correct processing path. ### Hague vs. Non-Hague Countries An apostille from Colorado is accepted in over 120 Hague Convention member countries. If your destination country is _not_ a Hague member, a different process — called authentication and legalization — is required. This involves additional steps through the U.S. Department of State and the destination country's embassy or consulate. We handle both Hague apostille and non-Hague legalization for Colorado documents. ### Colorado-Specific Notes Most apostille requests we process for Colorado fall into three buckets: vital records (birth, marriage, death), business filings, and notarized affidavits. Documents are returned via tracked, signature-required shipping. Colorado customers typically receive completed apostilles within 1–2 business days of state processing. **Filing tip:** Older documents (typically more than 1 year old) may need to be re-issued before the Colorado Secretary of State will accept them for apostille. We verify acceptability during free document review. ## Why Choose 1Apostille for Colorado #### Nationwide Coverage We process Colorado apostilles remotely — no need to visit the Colorado Secretary of State yourself. #### Free Document Review We review every document before submission to prevent rejections and unnecessary delays. #### Transparent Timelines Real-time tracking and upfront processing estimates so you always know where your order stands. #### All Document Types Birth certificates, court orders, business filings, diplomas — we handle every document type. ## Colorado Apostille by Document Type Birth Certificate Apostille: https://1apostille.com/services/birth-certificate Marriage Certificate Apostille: https://1apostille.com/services/marriage-certificate FBI Background Check Apostille: https://1apostille.com/services/fbi-background-check Business Document Apostille: https://1apostille.com/services/business-documents Court Document Apostille: https://1apostille.com/services/court-documents Power of Attorney Apostille: https://1apostille.com/services/power-of-attorney Diploma & Transcript Apostille: https://1apostille.com/services/diploma-transcript Apostille for Immigration: https://1apostille.com/services/immigration Hague Apostille Convention: https://1apostille.com/services/hague-apostille ## Colorado County Apostille Guides Find county-specific apostille information including local issuing authorities, common documents, and processing details.
