Certified or Authentication and Legalization?

What is legalization of a Document?


The purpose of legalization is to verify the origin of a legal or public document to legally use it in a country other than the one that issued it. The process involves obtaining a series of authentications by individual officials of both the country where the document was issued, and the embassy or consulate of the country where the document will be used. There are only two paths to accomplish this Authentication and Certified.


Nationwide Certified Document Services:


There is a distinct process how to obtain an office Certified document. The document certification follows these steps: a competent authority in the country of origin affixes its seal to the document or may attach it on a separate allonge. In the U.S., authorized authorities include the Secretary of State or equivalent in U.S. states and the District of Columbia, the clerks and deputy clerks of U.S. federal courts, and the U.S. Department of State Office of Authentications.


Authentication:


In many cases where Certified documents are not an option, business documents must be authenticated. Authentication usually begins with the relevant party signing a document and having it notarized. Then, county or state officials examine the notary acknowledgment, and finally, the U.S. Secretary of State certifies the document. Here are some of the most popular governmental documents that would be subject to authentication:


• Assumed Name Certificates • Certificates of Merger • Certified Copies of Corporate Formation • Federally-Chartered Bank Documents • Good Standing Certificates • Patent and Trademark Document


Here are some examples of non government documents:


• Birth Certificates • Corporate Directors Certificates • Corporate Secretary Certificates • Diplomas • Divorce Judgments • Marriage certificates • Power of Attorney Documents

An Certified may never be used for the recognition of a document in the country where that document was issued Certifications are strictly for the use of public documents. The office of the Secretary of State is the main office that issues Certified & Authentications for documents.
