What Is an Apostille?#
An apostille is an official government certification that authenticates the origin of a public document, making it legally recognized in countries that are members of the Hague Convention. If you need documents accepted abroad — for immigration, adoption, education, business, or legal purposes — an apostille is often required.
Documents We Can Help Apostille#
- Birth, marriage, and death certificates
- Diplomas, transcripts, and academic records
- Powers of attorney and legal agreements
- Corporate documents and business filings
- Background checks and court records
- Notarized affidavits and sworn statements
How the Apostille Process Works#
- Document Notarization — Many documents must first be notarized by a licensed notary public before they can receive an apostille
- State Authentication — The document is submitted to the appropriate state authority (Secretary of State) for apostille certification
- Federal Authentication — For federal documents, submission goes to the U.S. Department of State
- Return to Client — The apostilled document is returned, ready for international use
