Australia is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so U.S. documents only require an apostille from the issuing state's Secretary of State (or U.S. Department of State for federal documents). No embassy legalization is needed. ### How long does the apostille process take for Australia? Standard processing typically takes 5–15 business days depending on the issuing state. We offer expedited 24–72 hour service for urgent Australia submissions. Federal documents handled by the U.S. Department of State usually take 8–12 weeks via mail or 1–2 weeks expedited. ### Do documents going to Australia need to be translated? Yes, Australia typically requires a certified English translation. We coordinate with sworn/certified translators familiar with Australia requirements to ensure your translated documents are accepted. ### Can I get an FBI background check apostilled for Australia? Yes. FBI background checks are federal documents that must be apostilled by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. We handle the entire process — channeling, FBI report retrieval, and apostille — for use in Australia. ### What does it cost to apostille a document for Australia?
