An apostille is an internationally recognized certificate validating the signature and seal of a public official in the issuing country. If your document is intended for use in a country participating in the Hague Legalization Convention ( aka the "Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents"), you will need to obtain an Apostille certificate in Colorado.
What documents can be authenticated by an apostille?
Generally, any type of notarized or certified public document can be authenticated by an apostille including adoption documents, affidavits, articles of incorporation, bills of sale, commercial contracts and agreements, court judgments, deeds of trust, diplomas, identity documentation, letters of intent, oaths and power of attorney.
