What Is An Apostille?
An apostille is an authentication certificate that verifies the authenticity of a public document, such as birth certificates, marriage licenses, educational diplomas, and other legal documents. It is required for documents that need to be used abroad.
The apostille certifies that the document has been issued in accordance with the law and bears the signature of a Texas public official who has the authority to issue the document. In Austin, Texas, the Secretary of State issues apostilles for documents issued by state authorities, such as birth certificates and academic transcripts.
Our apostille service includes notarizing any documents that may be required, getting the document translated and our apostille agent traveling to you and to the Secretary of State.
