What Is an Apostille?
An apostille is a special certificate that confirms the authenticity of a public document so it can be legally used in another country. It is commonly required for documents like birth certificates, marriage certificates, court records, diplomas, powers of attorney, and corporate records when they will be presented overseas. Apostilles are used specifically for countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention; if your document will be used in a Hague Convention country, an apostille is usually the correct legalization method.

Every order is carefully routed and submitted to the correct Secretary of State (or appropriate state authority) based on the document’s state of origin, ensuring that your apostille is issued properly and accepted abroad.
Hague vs. Non-Hague Countries
The type of legalization you need depends on whether your destination country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention.
Hague Convention Countries (Apostille Required)
If your documents will be used in a country that is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, they will typically require an apostille. In these countries, the apostille replaces more complex consular legalization steps, making international document recognition faster and more straightforward. We confirm your destination country’s status and obtain the correct apostille from the appropriate state or federal authority.
Non-Hague Countries (Embassy Legalization Required)
For countries that are not part of the Hague Convention, documents usually require multi-step embassy or consulate legalization instead of an apostille. This often involves notarization, state certification, U.S. Department of State authentication, and final legalization by the foreign embassy.
