Do you need to apostille your diploma?
If you are planning to work or continue your education in another country, you will be asked to apostille your diploma.
Every month we apostille dozens of diplomas from various Universities, Colleges, and High Schools located in the United States. In order to apostille your diploma, it will first need to be signed by the Registrar and notarized. The Registrar is the official at the school who can attest to the diplomas validity and authenticity.
We can apostille diplomas issued from all 50 States and the District of Columbia (Washington, D.C.). If your diploma originates from another country, you will need to obtain the apostille from there. We can only assist you if your school is located in the USA.
Please follow the following step-by-step instructions on how to apostille a diploma…
Step #1: The first step is to contact the School’s Registrar and inform the Registrar that you will need the original or a color copy of your diploma to be signed and notarized. The Registrar with either ask you to mail in the original or email a color copy. Some schools request that you purchase a new diploma. If the school does not have a notary on staff, a traveling notary can visit the school and meet with the Registrar. You can search online and arrange for a traveling notary service to visit the school when it’s convenient for the Registrar. Most notaries are unfamiliar with authenticating a diploma for another country so it’s best to leave the apostille process to us. The notary must follow the proper notarial laws of their State in order for the State office to authenticate the documents.
We recommend that the school assist the notary by signing and notarizing the back of the diploma. A statement from the registrar followed by the notarial wording is ideal.
Step #2: Once you receive your notarized diploma, go ahead and verify that the diploma has been signed and notarized. Some schools will sign and notarize the back of the diploma while others have enough space to use the front. The original signature and the printed name of the Registrar must be on the documents including the notary’s name, signature, date of notarization, notarial wording, and stamp.
Step #3: The final step is to mail in your documents to our office for processing. We have created an order form and credit card authorization form for every US State. You can find and download our order forms here: National Apostille Order Forms
