What is an "Apostille" or
"Authentication?"
Since October 15, 1981, the United States has been
part of the 1961 Hague Convention abolishing the Requirement of
Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. The Convention provides for
the simplified certification of public (including notarized) documents
to be used in countries that have joined the convention. Under the Hague
Convention, signatory countries have agreed to recognize public
documents issued by other signatory countries if those public documents
are authenticated by the attachment of an internationally recognized
form of authentication known as an " apostille ". The
apostille ensures that public documents issued in one signatory country
will be recognized as valid in another signatory country.
The sole function of the apostille is to certify the
authenticity of the signature on the document; the capacity in which the
person signing the document acted; and the identity of any stamp or seal
affixed to the document. An apostille issued by the Secretary of State is a one
page document embossed with the Great Seal of a State. The apostille
includes the facsimile signature of the individual issuing the
certificate.
There are currently over 60 member states of the Hague
convention and in addition to those countries many other countries will
also recognize an apostille certificate.
The Convention applies only to public documents .
These are documents emanating from an authority or official connected
with a court or tribunal of the State (including documents issued by an
administrative, constitutional or ecclesiastical court or tribunal, a
public prosecutor, a clerk or a process-server); administrative
documents; notarial acts; and official certificates which are placed on
documents signed by persons in their private capacity, such as official
certificates recording the registration of a document or the fact that
it was in existence on a certain date and official and notarial
authentications of signatures. The main examples of public documents for
which apostille are issued in practice include birth , marriage and
death certificates; extracts from commercial registers and other
registers; patents; court rulings; notarial acts and notarial
attestations of signatures; academic diplomas issued by public
institutions. Diplomas issued by private institutions may not be
apostillized directly; a "private" diploma may, however, bear
an official certificate issued by a notary, Solicitor, Agency or any
other person or authority competent under the law of the State of origin
of the diploma to authenticate the signature on the diploma. This
official certificate is a public document under the Convention and thus
may be apostillized. In such a case the apostille does not relate to the
diploma itself; instead it certifies the authenticity of the certificate
on or accompanying the diploma.
