Growers, Exporters and Small Businesses
Carpinteria’s nurseries, growers and food businesses ship abroad, and foreign buyers sometimes want apostilled company documents or authorizations. California company documents get a state apostille; federal export certificates (for example from USDA or FDA) get a federal apostille. We handle both. See business documents.
Family Documents
Birth and marriage certificates for dual citizenship and residency, travel consent letters for children traveling with one parent, and powers of attorney are what Carpinteria families book most often. Many of these need a notary first, and we do both in one visit.
Certified Copies
Santa Barbara County records are issued by the County Clerk-Recorder at the Hall of Records, 1100 Anacapa Street in Santa Barbara, and at 511 East Lakeside Parkway in Santa Maria. Ask for an authorized certified copy. Copies signed only by a county Health Officer, which some offices issue for very recent births and deaths, must be certified by the Clerk-Recorder before California will apostille them; we check this when you drop off.
Not sure this is the right document or the right apostille? Call (805) 866-4199, any day 8am–10pm. We will tell you exactly what your destination needs before you pay for anything.
