In Los Angeles, it is common to need to legalize documents for submission to various authorities abroad. Life presents a wide variety of situations where we need to present a marriage certificate or other documents not within the United States, but in another country. However, we cannot simply take the original document and expect it to have the same legal validity abroad as it does in the U.S. There is a special document legalization procedure to grant them such legal validity. The procedures vary depending on the documents and, of course, the location where you plan to present the document.
If you need to legalize a marriage certificate to use it in a country that is a signatory to the 1961 Hague Convention, consider yourself lucky. You don’t have to go through the complicated and time-consuming process of legalizing documents through a consulate. There is a more convenient—and, most importantly, faster—alternative for you: a special procedure called apostille certification.
