Illinois Hague apostille

Do you need Hague apostilles for your Illinois documents? We provide Apostille and Embassy legalization services in the State of Illinois and nationwide, for documents intended for international use.  

If you are traveling overseas, or sending an Illinois document for use in a foreign country, you may be required to have the document apostilled or legalized. Hague apostilles have been adopted internationally as a uniform way of verifying documents sent between countries.

What does an Illinois apostille look like?

In the State of Illinois, as in all U.S. states, an apostille is a separate page attached to the document by a staple covered by a gold foil embossed seal. It is signed by the Secretary of State (facsimile signature) and has a black-and-white Seal of the State of Illinois.
