What is an apostille?
An apostille is a certification issued by the legal authorities of a state certifying that a document issued by the state is official, authentic and issued by the legal authorities.
An apostille also confirms the notary’s authority to approve notarial documents. The apostille verifies the notary’s signature on the document and confirms that the notary is a licensed notary in accordance with the Israeli law. The apostille validates public documents and notarial approvals in foreign countries under the condition that the foreign country is a party to the Hague convention. In case the foreign country is not a party to the Hague convention, the procedure of getting an apostille is longer, although possible.
