Foreign estates, repatriation, insurance claims, pension matters — handled quickly and with the care these situations deserve. $190 per certificate, 5 business days. Serving Jupiter with mobile pickup and our nearby West Palm Beach office.
In Jupiter — home to about 134,000 residents — the need for a death certificate apostille usually arrives with a deadline attached: a consulate appointment, a visa window, a foreign closing date. Whenever a Florida death has consequences overseas — an estate to close, property to retitle, a pension to collect, remains to bring home — foreign authorities freeze everything until they see an apostilled death certificate.
These requests arrive at difficult moments, and we treat them that way: straight answers, zero runaround, and a firm 5-day timeline. Death certificates in Florida come from the Bureau of Vital Statistics via local health department vital records offices; we confirm your certified copy qualifies, file it personally at the Florida Department of State, and return the apostilled certificate without delay. For Jupiter residents, that means one handoff — at your door or at our office — and the apostilled original back in your hands on a defined timeline.
Before succession proceedings open or inherited assets are released, foreign courts and notaries require the apostilled death certificate.
Selling or transferring real estate the deceased held abroad begins with the apostilled certificate.
Repatriating remains to the home country requires apostilled death documentation in the consular file.
A foreign life insurer won't pay out until it receives the apostilled death certificate.
To stop payments and start survivor benefits, foreign pension systems require apostilled proof of death.
When a citizen dies abroad, many countries require the death registered at home — and the apostilled U.S. certificate is the document that opens that file.
Jupiter is home to roughly 61,000 residents. Jupiter's mix of international professionals, seasonal residents, and a well-established Guatemalan community generates a steady stream of apostille work — diplomas and corporate documents heading abroad, and civil records bound for Central America.
We serve clients throughout Jupiter's neighborhoods including Abacoa, Jupiter Farms, Admirals Cove, Jonathan's Landing, and the Inlet Village district, as well as nearby communities such as Tequesta, Juno Beach, and Palm Beach Gardens. Landmarks like the Jupiter Inlet Lighthouse, Harbourside Place, and Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium put us on familiar ground — this is home-turf service, not a mail-order processor.
From Jupiter, our West Palm Beach office is about 30 minutes away — or skip the drive entirely and book mobile pickup; we come to your home or office. We also handle death certificate apostilles for clients in nearby North Palm Beach, and Lantana.
Florida death certificates come in two forms: a public version omitting cause of death, and a restricted version that includes it (family members and legal representatives only). Either can be apostilled — the question is which one your foreign recipient wants. Estate and property filings generally take the standard version, while insurance claims usually insist on cause of death. Check before you order, or describe your situation and we'll steer you right.
The copy must be a certified copy issued by the Florida Bureau of Vital Statistics or a county health department vital records office — in Palm Beach, the Florida Department of Health in Palm Beach County. Funeral home paperwork and photocopies cannot be apostilled. When your death certificate is ready, bring it to our office — about 30 minutes from Jupiter — or book mobile pickup and we'll come to you.
Walk in to our West Palm Beach office or schedule mobile pickup anywhere in Palm Beach County — confirmed within one business hour.
Before anything is filed, we vet the document itself — the certification, the notarization, and what your destination country expects — so rejections don't happen.
We hand-carry your paperwork to the Florida Department of State counter ourselves. No mail-in pile, no batch processing, nothing left to chance.
Your apostilled originals come back in 5 business days, ready for office pickup or local return delivery — and you get a call the minute they arrive.
One flat number, nothing bolted on afterward. What we quote is what you pay, and the Florida Department of State's filing fee is already inside it.
Every price covers the $10-per-document Florida Department of State filing fee, in-person submission at the state counter, and complete document handling. If your paperwork needs notarization first, we offer that as a separate add-on service.

Anyone may order the version without cause of death — it's a public record. The cause-of-death version stays restricted to the spouse, parents, children, siblings, grandchildren, or a legal representative for 50 years following the death.
Standard certificates satisfy most foreign probate and property matters; foreign life insurers usually demand the cause-of-death version. When the receiving institution hasn't said which, we'll help you figure it out so you don't order twice.
Yes, and it happens often. A relative, attorney, or funeral director in the area can deliver the certificate to us, or we can arrange mobile pickup. Once apostilled, the certificate can be shipped anywhere internationally.
In most cases yes — non-English-speaking destinations generally want certified translations of the certificate and the apostille both. We fold certified translation into the same order.
Yes, so long as you obtain a certified copy issued today by the Bureau of Vital Statistics. It's the registrar's current signature that the Department of State verifies.
