How to Prepare Your Documents for a New York Apostille in 2026

To apostille New York documents, you need certified originals (not photocopies) issued in-state, and vital records specifically need long-form copies - NYC-issued birth and death certificates also require a Letter of Exemplification alongside them. Notarized documents need an extra County Clerk certification step first, unless they come directly from the NYS Department of Health. Submit the completed request form with payment and a return envelope to the Department of State.

To apostille a New York marriage certificate before moving abroad, get a certified original copy (not a photocopy), have it certified by the County Clerk first if it was issued in NYC, then submit it to the NY Department of State, either by mail, in person at one of the walk-in offices, or through a service like Globeia.

New York Birth Certificate Apostille - Complete 2026 Guide

A New York birth certificate apostille is issued by the NYS Department of State (DOS) and authenticates your certified copy for use in 129+ Hague Convention countries. The state fee is $10 per document. In-person processing at five DOS offices is same-day; mail-in takes 1–3 weeks from receipt. NYC birth certificates - issued in any of the five boroughs - require a Letter of Exemplification and County Clerk certification before submission to NYS DOS. These must be arranged before, not during, the DOS application. Globeia coordinates the full process remotely, including the NYC-specific steps, for applicants anywhere in the world.

How to Get Apostille in New York: The Complete Guide

To get an apostille in New York, you need to obtain a certified copy of your document from the the NYS or NYC Department of Health for birth, death, or marriage certificates, or your school for educational documents, and get County Clerk certification if it was signed by a local registrar or notary rather than the NYS Registrar. Then fill out the current Apostille Request Form and submit it, along with the $10 per document fee to the New York Department of State, Division of Licensing Services. Note that federal documents like FBI background checks cannot be apostilled here and must go to the US Department of State in Washington DC instead.

Top 7 Mistakes Americans Make When Moving to Portugal

Portugal is quickly becoming a top destination for Americans relocating abroad. With a lower cost of living (about 30–40% less than the U.S.), a strong sense of safety, and beautiful landscapes, it appeals to retirees, remote workers, and families alike.

Why Americans Moving to Portugal Need an FBI Background Check and Apostille

Americans moving to Portugal need an FBI background check because Portuguese immigration authorities require a federal-level criminal record verification, and a state police clearance will not satisfy the requirement.

Portugal D7 Visa for U.S. Citizens in 2026: FBI Background Check and Apostille Requirements

To apply for a Portugal D7 visa as a U.S. citizen, request an FBI Identity History Summary using ink or electronic fingerprinting and immediately mail it to the U.S. Department of State’s Office of Authentications for a federal Hague Apostille. Once apostilled, have the document translated into Portuguese by a qualified certified translator. Finally, submit the complete background check alongside your proof of passive income, long-term accommodation, and health insurance to your local Portuguese consulate or authorized center.
