Secure Global Recognition for Your Legal Documents - State and Federal Apostilles

What is an Apostille

An apostille is a form of authentication issued by a designated government agency that verifies the origin of a public document.

It certifies the authenticity of the signature on the document, the capacity in which the person person signing the document acted; and the identity of any stamp or seal attached to the document. It’s required for use in countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention. Whether you’re moving abroad, getting married overseas, or conducting international business, an apostille ensures your U.S.-issued documents are recognized abroad—legally and securely.

North Carolina Apostille Services: What You Need to Know

To be apostilled in North Carolina, documents must either:

1.) Be issued by a North Carolina public official, or

2.)Be notarized by a commissioned North Carolina notary public (like Ink & Honor)

The apostille itself is issued by the NC Secretary of State’s Office in Raleigh, but Ink & Honor handles the preparation, notarization, and submission for you—so you don’t have to deal with the red tape.
