Behind the scenes, there’s a lot that goes into the apostille process. Every case is different, and how long it takes us to process your documents depends on the complexity of the situation. There are several factors that go into processing, including (but not limited to) the following:
There are subtle but important differences between an apostille, an authentication, and embassy legalization, and there are different requirements depending on whether or not we’re dealing with a member nation that recognizes apostilles.
Take a look at the end of our What Is Apostille page to see which countries are members of the Hague Convention and recognize apostille certificates, which countries are in the process of becoming members, and which countries are non-members and require authentications instead of an official apostille.
Briefly, an apostille is a form of authentication that’s streamlined and simplified for quicker processing, and is accepted and understood by nations that participate in the Hague Convention of 1961.
An authentication performs the same duty as an apostille but is used by countries that aren’t members of the Hague Convention; in these cases, an embassy, consulate, or the U.S. Department of State may need to be included to provide additional authentication.
Embassy legalization may be required by some non-member countries, and this can add a bit more time to the process.
What’s more, we offer translation services for anyone who needs it, like translations from a “Perito de Mexico” or Translator from Spain (also known as “Traductor Jurado del Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores”). Many of our agents speak Spanish, and we work with translators of all languages, enabling us to help when translations need to be done as part of our apostille and document verification services.
