What is an Apostille?
An apostille is a certificate that authenticates a public document for international use, making the legalization process easier for countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention. This process is essential for document authentication, as it verifies the authenticity of signatures, seals, or stamps on a document, confirming that it is a genuine public document issued by a competent authority in the originating country.
