Secure the legal transfer of your assets globally. An Assignment Document is a formal instrument used to transfer rights, property, or interests from one party to another. Whether you are assigning a patent, a trademark, or corporate shares to a foreign entity, your Assignment must be officially apostilled to be legally recognized in an international jurisdiction.
At US Apostille, we provide expedited authentication for Assignments from all 50 U.S. States. We ensure your transfer of rights is processed through our Maryland hub in just one business day.
Mandatory: Original "Wet-Ink" Documents Only
Physical Requirement: To secure a valid Apostille, you MUST mail the original Assignment Document bearing the original signatures of all parties and the original seal of a Notary Public to our office.
Digital scans, photocopies, or electronic signatures are NOT accepted by the Secretary of State for this type of document. The physical notary impression is required for verification.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. Government authorities and embassies abroad require proof of the "original" document. The Secretary of State in Maryland must verify the physical notary stamp and signature on the hard copy to issue the Apostille.
Yes. As long as the Assignment document is properly notarized, we can process it through our Maryland-based expedited service, regardless of where the asset or company is registered.
If the document is signed and notarized within the United States, it is eligible for a U.S. Apostille. We can process these "cross-border" assignments in 24 hours.
No. It can be notarized in any state. However, by sending it to our Maryland office, we utilize our direct "hand-carry" access to the Secretary of State to get it apostilled much faster than other states.
We recommend using FedEx or DHL with a tracking number. Once we receive your original Assignment, we process it and ship it back to you (or your international lawyer) via the same secure methods.
