MORE USEFUL INFORMATION ABOUT LEGALIZATIONS AND AUTHENTICATIONS

FAQ

How to get an apostille?

To obtain an apostille, first ensure that your document is an original or a certified copy and has been notarized or otherwise authenticated by the appropriate authority. Apostilles are used to certify the authenticity of documents for international use, particularly in countries that are members of the Hague Convention of 1961.

What is the difference between authentication and apostille?

Authentication and apostille are both methods used to verify the legitimacy of documents for international use, but they apply in different contexts. Authentication is a process used to verify the signature and authority of the person who signed the document.

This process is typically required for documents being used in countries that are not parties to the Hague Convention of 1961. Authentication usually involves a multi-step procedure where documents are verified by the issuing authority, then authenticated by the foreign affairs department or a similar governmental body.

Apostille is a specific type of authentication used exclusively for countries that are members of the Hague Convention. An apostille certifies the authenticity of the document’s origin in a simplified manner, eliminating the need for additional verification by the foreign affairs department. The apostille is a certificate attached to the document, affirming that it is genuine and meets the requirements of the Hague Convention.

How long does it take to get an apostille?

The processing time for an apostille varies depending on the issuing authority and the volume of requests. Generally, it can take a few days to several weeks. It is advisable to check with the relevant authority for specific processing times and to allow ample time before your document is needed.

Can I get an apostille for a document that is already signed or notarized?

Yes, if the document is already signed or notarized, it may still be eligible for an apostille. However, the document must first be properly notarized or authenticated according to the requirements of the issuing authority before the apostille can be attached.
