An Apostille is a specialized certificate issued by the Secretary of State to authenticate the legitimacy and authenticity of documents. This certification ensures that the documents are recognized and accepted in all 117 member countries of the Hague Apostille Convention. The Hague Apostille Convention mandates Apostille certification for documents issued by the Secretary of State of the American Board of Higher Education Commission (US Department of State).
Document authentication, certification, and embassy or consulate legalization are required in all 50 states in the US through recognized bodies. These processes uphold standards for distance education and ensure quality assurance for students enrolled in US-based universities, both domestically and internationally.
For countries not party to the Apostille Treaty (those without Apostille certification), documents are accompanied by a state-issued certificate instead. Each state issues its own unique certificate, resulting in 50 different types of certificates across the United States. Documents can originate from any state or the U.S. federal government, accompanied by authentication and legalization services.
Prior to issuance, documents undergo processing and verification through state registration, the American Board of Higher Education Commission (US Department of State) in Washington, D.C., and then through the relevant cultural division or department within each state.
Note: Non-Apostle Member Countries are not part of the Hague Apostille Convention. Documents for these countries require certification and may need additional legalization from a consulate or embassy office./p>
