Getting a power of attorney accepted in Russian Federation

Authorize someone to act for you abroad — property sales, banking, legal representation, family matters. The single most requested document for international use.

Russian Federation is a Hague Apostille Convention member, so one Florida apostille is everything your notarized power of attorney needs there — no embassy legalization, no consulate queue. Requests for Russian Federation most often involve inheritance matters and powers of attorney for property; whatever the purpose, the chain is identical: sign in our online session, we file with the Florida Secretary of State, and the apostilled package ships to your US address or directly to Russian Federation.

If the receiving authority in Russian Federation requires the document in the local language, our certified translator prepares the translation with a sworn accuracy statement we notarize and apostille in the same order.

How This Works

Why a Florida apostille works when you’re in another state — or another country

Because an apostille certifies the notary, not the signer. Your notarization is performed online by a Florida-commissioned notary, so the notarial act is governed by Florida law (Chapter 117, Part II) no matter where you’re sitting. That makes your document a Florida document — and the Florida Secretary of State is the competent authority to apostille it.

Under the Hague Convention, every US apostille carries exactly the same legal power — a Florida apostille is worth precisely as much as one from California, Texas, or New York. The embassy or registry receiving your document only checks that the apostille is genuine; it doesn’t care which state issued it. The result: you skip your own state’s apostille office entirely — no lines, no mailing originals, no taking time off work.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Will Russian Federation accept an apostilled US power of attorney?

Yes — Russian Federation is a Hague Convention member and accepts apostilles from any US competent authority, including Florida's, with full legal force.

Can you deliver directly to Russian Federation?

Yes — worldwide delivery ($499 per document, all-inclusive) ships the apostilled package by express courier straight to the recipient in Russian Federation, fully tracked.

Do I need to mail you anything?

No. You upload your document and sign in a live online session. We handle the printing, certification, and Florida Department of State filing on our end — the only physical shipment is the finished apostilled package delivered to you.

What exactly do I receive at the end?

A tracked package containing your notarized document with the official Florida apostille certificate attached by the Department of State — security paper, gold embossed seal, unique verification number — plus the digitally sealed PDF from your session for your records.

Is online notarization legal?

Yes. Remote online notarization is authorized by Florida Statutes Chapter 117, Part II, is recognized across the US, and the Florida Department of State accepts remotely notarized documents for apostille.

Can you ship the finished package abroad?

Yes — the worldwide delivery option sends the apostilled package by express international courier directly to any Hague Convention country, fully tracked, typically arriving in 2–5 business days after the apostille is issued.

How long does the whole process take?

Typically 7–10 business days door to door: your notary session within about a day of confirming, roughly five business days of Florida Department of State processing, then tracked delivery.

Does an apostille expire?

The apostille certificate itself has no expiration date. Some receiving authorities, however, want the underlying document to be recent — commonly within 3–6 months for civil-status documents — so check your receiver's freshness requirement, not the apostille's.
