Birth Certificate Attestation in Kolkata

An Apostille is a certificate that authenticates the signature of a public official on a document for use in another country. The whole purpose of an apostille is to abolish the requirement of legalizing individual documents for a person seeking a job, marriage or other immigration activities in a foreign country. The term can be used interchangeably with ‘abolishing the requirement of legalization for foreign public documents.’ The formal term of the policy is known as the HCCH 1961 Apostille Convention or the Hague Conference on Private International Law which replaces the often long and costly legalization process with the issuance of a single Apostille certificate by a Competent Authority in the place where the document originates. At present, the Convention has over 120 participating countries which includes major players like Australia, France, Germany, India, Japan, UK, USA etc. As a practical matter, Embassies and Consulates of the State of destination located in (or accredited to) the State of origin are ideally the ones to facilitate this process.

What is the Hague Convention ?

The Hague Convention , also called Apostille Hague Convention or Apostille Convention, was signed on 5th of October, 1961 in the town of Luxembourg. However, it only became effective from 14th of January, 1965. The convention was brought into action in order to abolish the necessity of legalization of documents and certificates to make the liberalization among the countries more convenient. When one obtains an apostille on documents, there is no need of the same on the documents again for another signatory country. Barriers in trading and other areas have been reduced and there is better accessibility through the nations.
