What is an Apostille Service and Why Might You Need One?
If you've ever been asked to provide official documents for use in another country, you may have heard the term "Apostille." But what exactly is an Apostille, and how can a notary public help you obtain one? At Peachy Mobile Notary, we offer Apostille services to make the process quick and stress-free. Here’s everything you need to know.
What is an Apostille?
An Apostille is a form of authentication issued for documents to be used in foreign countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention. It certifies the validity of a document’s signature and seal, ensuring that the receiving country recognizes it as legitimate. This process simplifies international document verification, eliminating the need for embassy legalization.
When Do You Need an Apostille?
Apostilles are commonly required for:
Birth, marriage, and death certificates – For immigration, dual citizenship, or marriage abroad.
Educational documents – Diplomas, transcripts, or degrees for studying or working overseas.
Business documents – Articles of incorporation, powers of attorney, or contracts for international business dealings.
Legal documents – Court orders, adoption papers, or notarized affidavits.
How Can a Notary Help with an Apostille?
A notary public plays a crucial role in the Apostille process. While notaries do not issue Apostilles, they can notarize documents that require authentication before being sent to the appropriate state or federal agency for certification. At Peachy Mobile Notary, we guide you through the process by:
Notarizing your documents – Ensuring they are properly signed and executed.
Providing guidance on the Apostille process – Helping you understand which agency to submit your documents to.
Handling document submission – In some cases, we can assist with courier or mail services to expedite the process.
