What Is an Apostille?
An apostille is an official certification that verifies a California document is authentic and legally valid for use in another country.
In plain terms, an apostille confirms:
The document is legitimate
The notary or issuing authority is valid
The document will be accepted internationally
Apostilles for California documents are issued by the California Secretary of State.
