When a document needs to be used in another country, it must go through a process of authentication or legalization. This can be confusing and time-consuming. For those who need to have their documents certified for use internationally, professional guidance is available.

A Colorado apostille is a special certificate that is attached to the original document. It identifies the State of Colorado and certifies that the signature on the document is genuine. An apostille can only be issued by the Secretary of State. The look of the apostille may change including the name of the Secretary of State and the signature.

Authentication certificates and apostilles verify signatures, stamps, and seals on important documents such as birth and death certificates, court orders, and corporate records. The type of document and the country where it will be used determines whether an apostille or authentication certificate is needed.

If the document you need is from a country that has joined the Hague Apostille Convention, only an apostille is required. Embassies and consulates will no longer perform legalization of documents.
