Apostille New York

Documents, such as vital records (birth, marriage, death certificates), divorce judgments, powers of attorney, notarized affidavits, etc. frequently need to be used abroad. However, the documents are not acceptable in foreign countries if they do not have certain seals an stamps. Before a document can be used in a foreign country, it must be authenticated. The procedure authenticating documents to be used abroad is called "legalisation" or "attestation".

In the past the process involved officials of the country where the document was issued as well as the foreign Embassy or Consulate of the country where the document is to be used. Because of the number of authorities involved, the legalisation process is frequently slow, cumbersome and costly.

How to apostille Case study: John needs to submit a death certificate registered in Nassau county, New York, to an Italian court. What needs to be done? Can John prepare the document himself, if yes, what is the procedure? The easiest way, of course, would be to entrust the document to a legalization/apostille expert. However, John can do it himself...

Step 1: First, John needs to make sure his document qualifies for the legalization.

Step 2: Then, John needs to find out if he needs an apostille or embassy legalization. As Italy joined the Apostille Hague Convention, he will need a Hague apostille.

Step 3: The next step is to take the document to Nassau county clerk's office for authentication

Step 4: Finally, the document needs to be apostilled by the Office of New York Secretary of State.

For an apostille or foreign embassy authentication you will need to obtain an extended certified copy of the marriage certificate with an original signature of the Acting City Clerk. The document must then be presented to the County Clerk 's Office to verify the signature of the Acting City Clerk. The The next step would be New York State Office of the Secretary of State that will issue an apostille (for Hague countries) or foreign certificate (for non-Hague countries).
