What Is an Apostille, and Why Is It Needed?

An apostille is a form of authentication issued by a Secretary of State or the U.S. Department of State, confirming the legitimacy of public documents for use in Hague Convention countries.

Instead of going through lengthy embassy legalizations, an apostille ensures the document is internationally valid.
