Adoption Papers Apostille
Why Apostille for Adoption Papers?
Adoption documents are among the most sensitive legal papers you may ever handle. When presenting adoption records to a foreign authority — whether for international adoption, immigration, or legal recognition abroad — they must be authenticated. Most countries require either an apostille (if part of the Hague Apostille Convention) or consular legalization (if not).
Without proper legalization, your adoption documents may not be recognized overseas, causing delays or legal complications.
