What It Is

What Is an Apostille?

An apostille is an official certificate issued by the state that verifies the authenticity of a notarized or certified document for international use under the Hague Apostille Convention.

Apostilles are commonly required for:

  • Powers of Attorney
  • Birth and marriage records
  • Estate planning documents
  • School transcripts and diplomas
  • International business paperwork
  • Adoption documentation
  • Real estate and property transactions

Requirements vary depending on the document type and destination country.
