Apostille Anywhere is a private, independent document logistics and expediting service. We are not affiliated with the FBI, the U.S. Department of State, or any government agency. Official background checks and apostilles can be obtained directly from government channels at a lower cost, though international shipping and domestic retrieval restrictions apply.

Portugal's immigration authority and its consulates enforce a zero-defect standard: FBI check, federal apostille, certified translation, each in the right order, each within the validity window (typically 90 days from issuance). The mail-in apostille queue alone can consume the entire window. Our hand-delivery route typically has the apostille ready in ~10-15 business days.
The 90-day validity window starts the day the FBI issues your results. We plan the timeline around your appointment or renewal date before we start.
Get ink fingerprints on the FBI's FD-258 card right where you live, we send the card template, simple instructions, and help you find a spot near you.
