There is a long list of documents that should usually be apostilled, but among the many types we can help you get authenticated are:
- State of Florida birth or death certificates
- Florida marriage certificates or divorce decrees
- Diplomas and transcripts
- Florida vehicle titles
- FBI reports and background checks
- Florida law enforcement background checks
- Powers of attorney
- Trademarks
- Warrants
- Treaties and agreements
- Extraditions
- Company bylaws
- Florida Certificates of Status
- Document notarized by a Florida notary public
Aside from this general list, there are a few additional rules and caveats that people requesting an apostille should be aware of. Any vital records should be obtained via the office of vital records and include a signature made by hand. Certain certificates, like birth and marriage, are not required to be notarized but must include a seal and signature. For documents issued by court clerks and Florida state officials, the Florida Secretary of State can also approve an apostille.
Please feel free to reach out to us if you have questions about your documents. Applying complex laws to various individual scenarios is no easy task, and there is no reason to feel discouraged if you don’t know what steps to take next.
