I can assist you with your
documents that require an Apostille from the State of Florida.
This is very often required
for documents with legal significance (such as a marriage
license, or death certificate) issued by a government body or
agency within the jurisdiction of the United States, for which
you are seeking reciprocal legal recognition in a foreign (non-U.S.)
jurisdiction.
"Apostille" is a French word
which means a certification. It is commonly used in English to
refer to the legalization of a document for international use
under the terms of the 1961 Hague Convention Abolishing the
Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents.
Documents which have been notarized by a notary public, and
certain other documents, and then certified with a conformant
apostille are accepted for legal use in all the nations that
have signed the Hague Convention.
The Florida Secretary of
State will Certify or Apostille the following documents:
-
Documents notarized or
certified as true copies by a Florida Notary
-
Public Birth and Death
Certificates bearing the signature of the State Registrar
obtained from the Bureau of Vital Statistics in Jacksonville
-
Florida Vehicle Titles
certified by the Florida Department of Motor Vehicles
Corporation
-
documents bearing the
signature of the Secretary of State
-
Documents certified by a
Clerk of the Court from a county within Florida
**NOTE: Documents must be submitted
with original signatures;
copies cannot be certified.
