According to Wikipedia, the word apostille is commonly applied in English to the legalization of a document for international use under the terms of the 1961 Hague Convention. Documents which have been notarized by a notary public, and certain other documents, and then certified with a conformant apostille are accepted for legal use in all the nations that have signed the Hague Convention. For more details, check the Wikipedia page on apostille or this well-written article on the website of the Secretary of State for Indiana.

We have compiled a sample list of documents we can get authenticated or apostilled for you. Please check the list of documents under Services. However, if you do not see your document in this list, do not lose heart. At Authxperts, we are constantly looking to broaden our services to cover a diverse variety of documents. Contact us and we will let you know if we can be of help.
