Embassy Legalization

​

​Salish Signatures is happy to arrange Embassy Legalization of your USA documents

to be certified by the US Department of State &/or foreign Consular, providing authentication attesting to your document's origin & legality for use in countries that do not participate 

in the 1961 Hague Convention Treaty.    

 

​​​

​

 

Common documents requiring Embassy Legalization include - Adoption, Background Checks, Business Formations, Court Orders, Employment Eligibility, Financial Verifications, International Property Purchases, Power of Attorney forms, Recommendation Letters, Transcripts, Vital Records etc.​​

​

​​​​How Embassy Legalization works:

* You provide your documents to us - this can be in person, electronically or by mail at your discretion, along with information on the type of document, state of origin & country of destination, which then allows us to review them for authorization eligibility.

* If necessary, we provide notarization services - this certifies your document's signature.

* If necessary, we offer 3rd party Translation services - this may cost an additional fee.

* We provide your documents to the appropriate authority securely - either to the US Dept of State or the requiring foreign Consular & we include all completed government forms the authority requires, along with payment of any authority fees on your behalf. 

* We provide you with status updates via text or email regularly - Authority &/or Consular  turn-a-round time can vary, however, we will keep you notified every step of the way!

​* Once the Certification is complete, we return your documents securely to you - generally in person, otherwise via UPS with tracking & signature upon delivery to ensure your receipt!
