Customer Reviews - SAS Apostille

ELWIN SIDHABATTULA
ELWIN SIDHABATTULA
I had an excellent experience with this company in processing my Certificate of Singleness, complete with all the necessary attestations and stamps. They initially told me it would take 25 working days, but they impressively finished everything in just 15 regular days.

I had been scammed twice before by other service providers, so I was understandably very cautious. But the team, especially Sir Lingaraj who assisted me, proved to be trustworthy, professional, and true to their promises. Communication with him was really smooth, clear, and very reassuring. He was also very patient and understanding of my concerns.

In the end, we received a fully legitimate document without any issues. I’m extremely pleased with their service and would highly recommend them to anyone needing help with document processing. Thank you again for your outstanding work and honesty. I really really appreciate it! God bless
