Apostille Services
International Document Authentication Made Simple and Stress Free.
What is an Apostille?
An apostille is a form of authentication issued for documents that will be used in another country. It verifies that your document is valid and can be recognized internationally.
This process is commonly required for legal, personal, or business documents being sent outside of the United States.
When do you need an apostille?
You may need an apostille if you are:
• Getting married in another country
• Studying or working abroad
• Handling international business matters
• Submitting legal documents overseas
• Managing family or personal matters internationally
If your document will be used in a country that is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, an apostille is typically required.
Common Documents That Require an Apostille:
• Birth certificates
• Marriage certificates
• Death certificates
• Power of Attorney
• Diplomas and transcripts
• Business documents
• Court documents
Some documents may need to be notarized before they can be submitted for apostille.
