UAE Embassy Attestation

Do you need UAE Embassy Attestation Services?

The UAE (United Arab Emirates) is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention (Convention of 5 October 1961 Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents).  Documents being sent to this country require State, U.S. Department of State, and the UAE (United Arab Emirates) Embassy legalization.  This three step process is necessary in order for the country of the UAE (United Arab Emirates) to accept your documents.

Processing documents through the UAE Embassy in Washington DC is commonly referred as the following:

  1. UAE Embassy Certification
  2. UAE Embassy Attestation
  3. UAE Embassy Legalization

Trust and Will Apostille

Do you need to apostille a Trust or Will?

At National Apostille, Inc., we take the guesswork out of obtaining an apostille on a Trust or Will.  Our trained and knowledgeable staff are available Monday-Saturday from 8am to 7pm to answer your questions and provide you easy to follow step-by-step instructions.

We can apostille documents signed and notarized in all 50 U.S. states and the District of Columbia (Washington D.C.).

How to apostille a Will or Trust?  In order to apostille a Will or Trust, they either need to be signed and notarized, copy certified with a notary public (Example: Attorney certifies the copy is a true copy of the original), or filed with the Court whereas a Court certified copy is produced.  A Court certified copy must have the name and signature of the Clerk of the Court/Deputy Clerk, and the seal/stamp of the Court.  In certain situations, the seal is embossed and/or color stamped.

A Will is typically not notarized.  If you need to apostille a Will and it’s not notarized, you can make a copy of the original Will and certify it with a notary public.  For example, you can make a copy of the Will and write a cover letter stating that the attached Will is a true copy of the original.  The cover letter which is basically a sworn statement is signed and notarized.  You can also ask an attorney to certify it with a signed and notarized cover letter.  The third option is to obtain a certified copy from the Court assuming the copy was filed with the Court.

Trust documents are typically signed and notarized.  You can mail in the original signed and notarized documents or have the attorney certify them with a signed and notarized cover letter.  You can also obtain a certified copy from the Court assuming the copy was filed with the Superior/Family Court.

Certified Divorce Decree Apostille

Do you need to apostille a Divorce Decree?

Are you planning to get married in a foreign country?

In order to apostille your divorce decree, you must mail in the original or a certified copy issued by the Court.  In some States, this Court can also be called the Family Court, Superior Court, County Court, and Circuit Court.

Divorce decrees can only be authenticated from the State of issue.  The Secretary of State does not have the authority to authenticate documents issued from another State. For example, if your divorce decree is from the State of California, the State of California is the only State that can issue the California apostille.  Another example is if your marriage certificate is from Florida, only the State of Florida can issue the Florida apostille.

If you had hired an attorney to help you with your divorce, your attorney should have supplied you with a certified copy of your divorce decree.  If not, your attorney can obtain one from the court and overnight it to your location or recommend a service who can obtain a certified copy from the court directly.

Not every divorce decree can qualify for an apostille.  Some States have set time limits on how old a certificate can be.  For example, divorce decrees issued from the State of Virginia can not be older than 12 months. We recommend that you mail in the documents you currently have for review.  If the State rejects your document, we will contact you with instructions.

Note: Some states may allow you to obtain a digital certified copy.
