Apostille

Before arranging an Apostille, check the issuing country, destination country and purpose

Apostille is not a universal stamp. It must match the document type, issuing jurisdiction, destination jurisdiction and receiving institution.

If the destination does not accept Apostille, consular legalization or another route may be required.
