What is an Apostille and Why Do You Need One?
An Apostille is a certification provided under the Hague Apostille Convention for authenticating documents, making them valid in member countries. If you plan to use a U.S.-issued document abroad-such as a birth certificate, marriage certificate, or corporate paperwork-you’ll likely need it to be apostilled to confirm it authenticity internationally
How to Prepare your document for Apostille Service
An apostille certificate is for documents you use in countries that are in the 1961 Hague Convention Treaty. You may need to get an apostille certificate if you are using a document issued by the U.S. federal government in one of these countries.
Preparing Federal Documents
If your document is signed by one of the following officials, you must get an apostille certificate:
- U.S. federal official
- U.S. consular officer
- Foreign consul registered with the U.S. Department of State’s Office of Protocol
- Military notary or judge advocate
Follow these steps to get the apostille certificate from our office:
- Make sure your document is an original or certified copy
- A certified copy is a copy of a primary document with a certificate on it that it is the true copy. Make sure seals and signatures are originals. The document must include a date of issuance.
- If the country where you are using the document requires it to be translated from English, get a professional translator and have it notarized
- Do not get the original document notarized.
- Submit your request for authentication services (includes your Form DS-4194, fees, and documents)
Do not notarize your document. Your document will no longer be valid if it is notarized.
Do:
- Include a legible signature of the official’s name, printed name and title, and seal of the agency
- Use agency letterhead
Preparing State Documents
If you’re using the document in a country that is part of the Hague Convention Treaty, get it certified by the state that issued the document. You do not need an apostille certificate.
If you’re using the document in a country not in the Hague Convention Treaty, get it certified with an authentication certificate.
