A simplified guide to birth certificate apostille:
Every person travels abroad for better personal and professional prospects. No matter the reason, a person has to carry with them their crucial documents to use abroad. Documents that are issued in India are not considered valid in other countries.
The only way to make your documents valid is to get them verified in an appropriate manner by a credible authority. An Apostille is the form of verification that earns legal status for your documents and allows them to be used abroad.
One should obtain an apostille only when:
Obtaining an apostille will
Verification by the embassy is needed when someone travels to a non-member country of the Apostille Convention.
In 1961, a joint effort was made by many countries to facilitate the use of documents at a global level. The convention, called the Hague Convention, simplified the verification process by abolishing the previous legalization process. A document called an Apostille was adopted by the convention, which, once issued, will be recognised by all member countries of the convention.
An apostille, once issued, is recognised by all Hague Convention countries. There is usually no expiration date for an apostille. However, the country where you are travelling may request documents that have recently been certified. An apostille, once issued, does not expire, but there may be a time limit on how old it can be.
An apostille is needed only for the public documents of a person. Documents are considered public only when the law of the country where they are issued identifies them as such.
An apostille is issued only on the original documents of a person. An apostille may be issued in the form of a sticker, stamp, or seal. There are two ways in which an apostille is issued on a document.
In India, an apostille is issued by following a standard procedure. The verification of documents takes place at three levels:
An Apostille is a French word that means Certification and it’s Pronounce as “ah-po-style”. An Apostille is simply the name for a specialized certificate, issued by the Ministry of External Affairs, New Delhi. The Apostille sticker is pasted on the backside of original document to verify it is legitimate and authentic, so it will be accepted in one of the other countries who are members of The Hague Apostille Convention.
The Apostille Convention is an international treaty that simplifies the legalization procedure for foreign public documents. It allows a Government body to certify a document issued in its own country as valid for other countries without further certification by the destination state. The Convention has 126 contracting states as of November 2023, including the United States and Canada.
The Apostille Convention provides the simplified certification of public (including notarized) documents to be used in countries that have joined the convention. Documents destined for use in participating countries and their territories should be certified by one of the officials in the jurisdiction in which the document has been executed.
The Hague Convention requires that all Apostille be numbered consecutively, with individual numbers applied to each Apostille issued. The recognized standard Apostille contains a seal and 10 mandatory references: name of country from which the document emanates, name of person signing the document, the capacity in which the person signing the document has acted, in the case of unsigned documents, the name of the authority that has affixed the seal or stamp, place of certification date of certification, the authority issuing the certificate, number of certificate, seal or stamp of authority issuing certificate and signature of authority issuing certificate. Prior to the introduction of Apostille certificates the burden on international courts and authorities to judge foreign documents as authentic was quite considerable. On the October 5, 1961 the Hague Convention abolished the requirement of legalization for foreign public documents. The Convention reduces all of the formalities of legalization to the simple delivery of a certificate in a prescribed form, entitled “Apostille”, by the authorities of the Ministry where the document originates. This certificate, placed on the document, is dated, numbered and registered. The verification of its registration can be carried out without difficulty by means of a simple request for information addressed to the authority which delivered the certificate.
