What is an Apostille?

An apostille stamp is a form of authentication issued to documents for use in countries that participate in the Hague Convention of 1961. It certifies the authenticity of the signature on the document, the capacity in which the person signing the document has acted, and, where applicable, the identity of the seal or stamp which the document bears. Essentially, the apostille stamp ensures that public documents issued in one signatory country will be recognized as valid in another signatory country, simplifying the process of legalizing documents for international use.
