The Japan Apostille Center is like a hydration station during a marathon, or a warm kotatsu during a snowstorm. Recently, a family member and I fell into a quandary while trying to close foreign bank accounts. We needed our bank closure documents notarized, and we needed legal confirmations (or apostille guarantees) of our signatures. At my wits end, I found the Japan Apostille Center through a Google search and contacted Sugita-san, and his services proved to be excellent. Patient, diligent, frank, kind, polite, friendly, attentive to detail, thorough, and prompt in his email responses, Sugita-san was easy to correspond with, easy to approach with questions and clarifications, open to providing explanations when I got confused, and clear when offering guidance and instructions. He arranged for our bank documents to be notarized and prepared declaration letters legally confirming our signatures, completely eliminating our anxiety and stress. Excellent services like this are what we like paying for. Thank you, Sugita-san and the Japan Apostille Center, for your work and your efforts! Working with you was fun and educational, and when my family or I am in need of legal assistance that is within your scope of expertise, we will surely contact you again! Take care, and may God bless the work of your hands!

Sugita-san is by far one the most helpful professionals I’ve had the pleasure of working with. He was able to help secure two very vital documents we needed to move to Thailand with. One of them was our marriage certification authentication with the Thai Consulate. I’m beyond grateful for all of the support we received these last few months. I would be happy to recommend and utilize him again.
