NOTARIZED DOCUMENT APOSTILLE
Power of Attorney Apostille Services
A power of attorney used abroad often requires an apostille or authentication. The document usually must be signed with a proper notarial certificate before it can be submitted to the responsible state authority.
What We Review
Notarization
We review the notarial certificate, signature, seal and state where the notarization occurred.
Destination
The country determines whether the document needs a Hague apostille or a non-Hague authentication and legalization process.
Document Use
Requirements may differ for property transactions, inheritance matters, banking, corporate representation or family matters.
Common Power of Attorney Requests
- General or limited power of attorney
- Real-estate or property power of attorney
- Corporate or business authorization
- Medical or family-related power of attorney
- Authorization for use at an embassy, bank or foreign registry
State Rules Still Apply
A Texas-notarized power of attorney generally follows the Texas Secretary of State process. A document notarized in another state must follow that state’s process. The receiving country may also request a certified translation, but translation requirements should be confirmed with the receiving authority.
