2. Notary Public vs. Apostille Service
We are commissioned Notaries Public for the State of California. However, East Bay Notary Express, Mobile Notary & Apostille acts solely as a private document transmittal and expeditor service for apostilles and authentications.
No Legal Determination: We do not determine which documents are legally required for your specific needs, nor do we advise on the legal effect of an apostille in a foreign country.
Authentication Only: Our service is limited to the procedural submission of documents to the California Secretary of State or the U.S. Department of State.
Document Validity: A notary public completing a certificate verifies only the identity of the individual who signed the document, and not the truthfulness, accuracy, or validity of that document.
