WHAT IS AN APOSTILLE
An apostille is a special certificate from the State of California. It lets another country accept your birth certificate, marriage certificate, death certificate, FBI background check, school record, or business document.
It helps another country know that the signature or seal on your document is real.
WHO THIS IS FOR
This service is for you if you are:
✓ Applying for dual citizenship
✓ Studying abroad
