Apostille serves as a certificate of international authenticity for documents originating in any of the Hague Convention member countries. You can use your apostilled document for official purposes worldwide, without the need for any additional authentication. Looking to authenticate your documents for a non-Hague convention member country? You can head over to our Authentication and Legalization page for detailed information on the alternate procedure.

The Status of Foreign Documents in Poland

Foreign documents usually have no legal standing in Poland without an apostille stamp on them. Non-Hague countries perform Embassy legalization instead, which is also an acceptable form of document verification.

The reason behind using this centralized system of international document verification is to curb fraud and eliminate any chances of document forgery. Since Poland is a Hague member country, documents headed from the U.S. to Poland must be apostilled by either a Federal or State apostille authority. This depends on which office issued the document in the first place as state-issued documents cannot be apostilled by the Federal Department of State.

The Globeia team will help you understand the difference between state and federal U.S. apostille so that you do not waste your time by submitting your request inaccurately.
