Common Reasons Apostille Requests Get Rejected in Texas

Many people attempt the apostille process on their own, only to face rejection and start over from scratch. A single error in preparation or submission can cost you weeks of additional waiting. Understanding where things go wrong is the first step toward getting it right. At TaxNSeal, we see these mistakes regularly and know exactly how to avoid them.

Reason 1
Incorrect Notarization

Documents that are improperly notarized or missing required notarial certificates are among the most frequent reasons for rejection.

Reason 2
Outdated Recordable Documents

The State's office does not accept recordable documents older than five years without additional steps.

Reason 3
Missing Signer Statements

Non-recordable documents must include a written statement from the signer summarizing the document's contents and intent.

Reason 4
Wrong Issuing Authority

Submitting federal documents, such as FBI background checks, to the state office instead of the U.S. State Department

Reason 5
Incomplete Attachments

Documents submitted with multiple attachments must list every attachment in the signer's statement. Missing even one leads to rejection

Reason 6
Online Notarization Issues

Remote online notarization requires a notarization ledger and specific certificate language. Without both, the submission will be turned away
