Colorado business contracts, academic records, and personal records like birth certificates often need an apostille on them when they are intended for use in another country. The apostille stamp will make these documents valid for acceptance in countries that come under the Hague Apostille Convention.
This simplifies cross-border legal transactions by eliminating complexities to facilitate smoother processing of documents for individuals and organizations.
The Colorado Secretary of State issues apostille on certified copies and notarized documents on documents issued within the state. Vital records must bear the signature and seal of the respective health or vital records department. Certified copies of birth and death certificates can be obtained from Colorado Vital Records offices. Marriage, divorce, and other documents can be obtained from the County Clerk's offices.
For proper notarization of your documents, please make sure that they are original, not photocopied or stamped. There must also be no blank spaces on the documents. Ask your notary public to include the state, county, and date of notarization, in English, even if the document is in another language.
