The Need to Apostille Documents for International Adoptions
When you are looking to adopt a child from somewhere that is outside of the Country you currently live in, there are a few steps that you will need to go through first. Of course, first, you will need to go through the adoption process in order to learn more about the child that you will be adopting, and the current conditions that he or she is currently used to/living in. With this, other important information will be gathered, such as the birth date of the child, any allergies or conditions that are related to food or any type of medicines, and current health condition. Once this has been completed, you will need to obtain an Apostille (a French word meaning certification) for all of your important documents needed in your adoption dossier to adopt a baby from overseas.
A Little Background On The Apostille
In October of 1961, there was a large convention called the Hague Convention that was convened. The Hague Convention was gathered in order to complete a variety of different tasks, one of which was finding a way that public legal documents that were issues by a government could also be seen as legalized by another foreign government. The conclusion that the countries who met eventually signed on was to instate an additional document called the Apostille certificate that could be included with the original legal document that came directly from one government. This Apostille certificate would serve as a way to certify with other foreign governments that the document was valid when dealing in foreign affairs. In order to ensure that such is the case, the original copy of the document, the Apostille Certificate, and a notarized translation is necessary to be seen as valid.
What Documents Do I Need?
When you begin the adoption process and you are at the point where you need an Apostille, you will need a variety of different documents. The documents needed to adopt a baby from overseas are you and your spouse’s birth certificates, marriage certificates or licenses, child abuse clearances in the form of criminal history, and personal references. By having these documents Apostilled, you can show the legality of your documents in the process, no matter what foreign country you are choosing to adopt the child from. Since having your documents Apostilled is an absolute must in order to adopt a child from a country that you do not belong to, it is also important to discuss how to have your documents Apostilled for you.
How to Have Documents Apostilled
In order to have your documents Apostilled in the shortest amount of time, rather than attempting to have your documents Apostilled by yourself, it is much more beneficial to your timeline to use a service that already has a large number of connections and can have your documents Apostilled in the shortest amount of time. This is especially important for anyone who is looking to adopt a child from an international government in the near future, or who has already started the process, but currently has not Apostilled the necessary documents needed in your adoption dossier to adopt a baby from overseas. Having your documents Apostilled can be done without using a service, but the process is incredibly complex and could end up taking weeks or months to complete if you do not have all of the necessary knowledge that is needed to have the documents completed. Because of this, most people choose to turn to a service, but in order to ensure that the service you choose will not only be timely and have the Apostille certificate back to you for each one of your documents within your timeline, but will also be affordable and not break your budget, where do you turn?
