Why Davis is different: international apostille

UC Davis hosts roughly 8,000 international students at any time, plus a steady stream of visiting researchers, postdocs, and exchange faculty. Many of them eventually need their U.S. academic records authenticated for use in their home country. The instrument for this is a California apostille.

The Davis-specific apostille workflow we handle most often:

1. Student/researcher requests an official transcript or diploma from the UC Davis Registrar.
2. The Registrar issues the document with a notarized statement of authenticity (the registrar staff are themselves notaries for this purpose).
3. For documents we notarize directly (sworn translations, identity affidavits, F-1 visa-related declarations), we handle the notarization same-day on or near campus.
4. We submit the notarized document to the California Secretary of State in Sacramento for apostille certification.
5. Document is returned to you in 5–10 business days (rush available).

Common destinations: China, India, South Korea, Brazil, Mexico, Germany, France, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and the Philippines. All are Hague Apostille Convention parties, so the apostille is the correct authentication (not the older "consular legalization" process).

Other common Davis requests

• Research-related powers of attorney. Visiting researchers, sabbatical faculty, and graduate students temporarily abroad often need POAs covering U.S. bank accounts, tax filings, and property management during their absence. We notarize on campus or at home.
• Sutter Davis Hospital bedside notary. Sutter Davis (2000 Sutter Place) is the main hospital in Yolo County and our most-visited Davis facility for healthcare directive signings.
• Real estate signings. Davis housing inventory is tight; refinance activity dominates. We also handle Yolo County deed recording.

Davis-specific considerations

Yolo County recording

Davis sits in Yolo County. Deeds, deeds of trust, and other recordable instruments record at the Yolo County Recorder (625 Court Street, Woodland). Same-day Yolo recording requires arrival before noon.

UC Davis campus access

Campus parking permits are required during academic hours, but our agents purchase short-term permits at the UC Davis Visitor Lot or arrange meetings in designated visitor spaces. The Memorial Union and the UC Davis Conference Center are common meeting points.

Translated documents

California notaries cannot notarize documents in a language we don't read — this is a frequent issue for documents drafted in Mandarin, Hindi, Korean, or Arabic. The fix is a sworn-translator's affidavit (which we can notarize) attached to the original document. Mention the language at booking.
