My Florida Apostille
Serving Boynton Beach
Florida divorce decrees are issued by the Clerk of Court in the county where the divorce was finalized — not by the state. For divorces finalized in Palm Beach County, that's the Palm Beach County Clerk & Comptroller. Only the certified copy of the final judgment (with the embossed seal and clerk's signature) can be apostilled. Photocopies, attorney-prepared summaries, and uncertified copies cannot be apostilled.
Two related documents sometimes get confused: the Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage (the court order that ends the marriage) and the Divorce Decree / Certificate (a summary issued by the Florida Bureau of Vital Statistics for divorces filed since 1972). Either can be apostilled. For most foreign uses — foreign remarriage, foreign citizenship by descent, foreign property matters — the receiving institution requires the certified Final Judgment from the Clerk of Court, not the vital-statistics summary. Check with the receiving institution before ordering.
Boynton Beach residents apostille divorce decrees most often for: foreign remarriage (most countries require proof of a finalized prior divorce before issuing a new marriage license), foreign citizenship applications (when prior marital history affects ancestry — common in Italian citizenship cases), international child custody and support cases (where the divorce decree includes custody and support orders that need to be recognized abroad), and foreign property division (when assets located abroad were addressed in the Florida divorce judgment).
Payment is collected at drop-off, during the pickup appointment, or online — credit card, ACH, or cash are all accepted. We handle divorce decree apostilles with the same discretion as death certificates. Confidentiality matters.
Every week we help dozens of Palm Beach County residents authenticate their documents for use abroad. These are the most common reasons divorce certificate apostille services are requested.
Marrying again in another country? Most foreign governments require an apostilled prior divorce decree before issuing a marriage license. Italy, Spain, Portugal, Mexico, the Caribbean — all standard requirements.
Italian, Polish, and other ancestral citizenship applications sometimes require apostilled divorce decrees in the line of descent — particularly where ancestor relationships or name changes affect the application.
Florida divorce judgments that include child custody, child support, or visitation orders need to be apostilled if you're seeking foreign enforcement or recognition of those orders.
When the Florida divorce judgment addressed property located abroad (real estate, bank accounts, business interests), the apostilled judgment is required to enforce or record that division in the foreign jurisdiction.
Foreign probate proceedings sometimes require apostilled divorce decrees to clarify marital status at the time of an inheritance event.
Foreign banks and property title registries occasionally request apostilled divorce decrees to update records when an account or title holder's marital status has changed.
All three options end the same way — your apostilled documents back in your hands in 5–7 business days, filed in person at the Florida Department of State.

When you place an order, we collect: your name, email address, phone number, return shipping address, the type and number of documents you're ordering, the destination country, and any notes you include with your order. We also receive payment information indirectly through Stripe, our payment processor — we never see or store your full card number.

We share your information only with the third-party service providers necessary to fulfill your order:
We do not sell your personal information. We do not share your data with marketers or advertisers.
You ship physical documents to our office for processing. We treat your original documents as confidential and store them securely until they are filed with the Florida Department of State. We do not retain copies of your documents after the apostille is returned to you.
We retain order records (name, email, order details) for seven years to comply with tax and business record requirements. You may request deletion of your data at any time by emailing [email protected], subject to our legal retention obligations.

By using myfloridaapostille.com or our apostille service, you agree to these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully before placing an order.
My Florida Apostille is an independent document service that facilitates apostille processing through the Florida Department of State on behalf of customers. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or operated by the Florida Department of State, the U.S. Department of State, or any government agency. We are a private business providing convenience services.
You agree to:
Our standard turnaround is five to seven business days from the moment we receive your documents at our office. This timeline depends on third-party factors outside our control, including FedEx transit times and the Florida Department of State's processing schedule. We are not liable for delays caused by carriers, state offices, weather, holidays, or other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
If the Florida Department of State rejects your document, we will contact you within one business day to discuss options. Some rejections can be resolved same-day at the counter; others require new documents from the issuing agency. Rejections do not entitle you to a refund of the state filing fee or our service fee, because both the fee and the labor have been performed.
Documents shipped via FedEx are insured up to $100 by default. For irreplaceable documents, you may purchase additional FedEx Declared Value coverage at the time of drop-off. We are not liable for loss or damage during transit beyond FedEx's published insurance coverage.
Payment is due at the time of order placement and is processed by Stripe. Refunds are governed by our separate Refund Policy.
All content on myfloridaapostille.com, including text, graphics, logos, and design, is the property of My Florida Apostille and protected by U.S. copyright law. You may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our written permission.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim related to our services is limited to the amount you paid us for the order in question. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including but not limited to lost opportunities, missed deadlines, or visa application denials.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida. Any disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Leon County, Florida.
We may update these Terms at any time. The "Last updated" date reflects the most recent revision. Continued use of our services after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

We want every customer to be satisfied. Because our service involves third-party fees and irreversible work performed on your behalf, refunds depend on when you cancel.
To request a refund, contact us by:
Include your order number (from your confirmation email) and a brief explanation. We will respond within one business day.
Approved refunds are processed within 5–10 business days to the original payment method. Your bank or card issuer may take additional time to display the refund.
If your documents are damaged or lost in transit by FedEx, FedEx insurance applies (default $100, or up to the Declared Value coverage you purchased). We will work with you to file a FedEx claim. Our service fee is non-refundable in these cases because the loss occurred outside our control.
If you have questions about our refund policy before placing an order, please contact us — we'd rather answer questions upfront than handle refunds later.
