Apostille for Spain
Apostille for Spain – What You Need to Know
If you need to use a U.S. document in Spain, it must be certified with an Apostille. Spain is a member of the Hague Convention, which means it accepts the Apostille as the official method for legalizing documents for international use.
An Apostille certifies the authenticity of a state notary’s or county official’s signature. Once apostilled, your U.S. document is legally valid for use in Spain without requiring any further legalization from the Spanish Embassy or Consulate.
