International Service of Process

International Service of Process

The Global Process Server helps you efficiently order Legal Document Delivery to all 50 United States from abroad, as well as from the U.S. to over 195 Countries.

A trusted, reliable, and affordable resource for attorneys, government agencies, businesses, and individuals who need to serve legal papers anywhere on Earth.

International Service of Process

Global service. Local compliance.

Service of process abroad fails on procedure far more often than on effort. Our work starts with getting the method right for the destination country.

Hague Service Convention

We identify country-specific declarations, prepare compliant documents, and coordinate the proper Convention channel.

Letters Rogatory

For jurisdictions outside applicable treaties, we guide formal judicial requests through the required diplomatic process.

Worldwide Local Service

Where permitted, trusted local professionals complete direct service under national and regional requirements.

Local or Worldwide, We Deliver.

Two specialties, one team; service of process anywhere your case takes you, from across the globe to across the street.

Worldwide International Process Service

We handle formal and informal service of legal documents in countries around the world whether that means routing through the Hague Service Convention, the Inter-American Treaty, Letters Rogatory, or a country's own local requirements. Our team keeps up with changing international rules so nothing falls through the cracks, and every completed assignment comes back to you with a Proof of Service.

U.S. Nationwide Process Service

Since 1986, we've served legal documents across all 50 states and U.S. territories no city, county, or hard-to-reach defendant is off-limits. Our team knows the local rules inside and out, so your documents get served quickly, correctly, and at a fair price, no matter how big, small, or tricky the case.

Our Core Services: Delivering Results Worldwide

An experienced international process server matches the method to the destination, the treaty status, and your court’s requirements.

Hague Service Convention

For member states, requests are transmitted to the destination's Central Authority with the required forms and translations, and returned with a certificate of service.

Translation & Document Preparation

Translations and packet assembly matched to what the receiving authority expects, including notarization and apostille coordination.

Inter-American Convention

In parts of the Americas, requests move through the Inter-American Convention on Letters Rogatory instead of the Hague Convention — its own treaty system with its own letter-of-request format, used in countries like Mexico and Argentina.

Informal & Direct Local Service

Even without a governing treaty, service in a foreign country is rarely impossible — documents can be delivered directly at the defendant's home or business address under that nation's own rules.

Letters Rogatory

For non-treaty countries, a formal court-to-court request moves through diplomatic channels until a foreign court completes service on our behalf.

Substituted Service

When personal delivery is repeatedly evaded, courts often permit substituted service — leaving documents with a responsible adult and mailing a copy.

FAQ

People Also Ask: Straight Answers to the Questions We Hear Most

It is the lawful delivery of legal documents to a party located outside the United States, carried out under the procedures the destination country recognizes most often the Hague Service Convention, Letters Rogatory, the Inter-American Treaty, or that nation’s own rules.

We review the destination country, its treaty status and any declarations it has made, the type of document, and your court’s requirements. That determines whether the request goes to a Central Authority, through diplomatic channels, or to a local agent.

Frequently, yes. Many countries require documents in their official language. We handle translation and document preparation as part of the engagement so packets arrive in an acceptable form.

Timelines depend entirely on the country and the route. Hague Central Authority requests are generally faster than Letters Rogatory, which move through diplomatic channels. We give you a realistic picture for your destination at case review.

You receive proof of service documenting how and when the documents were served, prepared for filing with your court, along with status updates throughout the process.
