What Is an Apostille and When Do You Need One
An apostille is a state-issued certificate that confirms the authenticity of a notarized or official public document so it will be accepted in other countries that follow the Hague Convention. Common files include
powers of attorney,
living wills and health directives, corporate resolutions, adoption records, and academic transcripts. We guide you on whether your document needs notarization first, or if you must request a certified copy before apostille.
