• The birth certificate is missing proper signature.
• The birth certificate is damaged or has been issued more than 10 years ago.
• You do NOT have the original birth certificate, you only have a photocopy.

Why apostille the document in New York instead of New Mexico?

• If you upload a photocopy of the document we will notarize and apostille the photocopy in New York City, because the notary and apostille have to be form the same State.
• If you want an apostille from New Mexico, please use the apostille original document service. (left side)
• We suggest that you ask the destination country authorities if an apostille on a copy will be acceptable, in most countries is acceptable.
