Legalization and Certification
Simplified Apostille and Legalization Services by DocsBase Canada
DocsBase specializes in assisting individuals and businesses with official document translation required for obtaining an apostille, ensuring your documents meet the standards for international recognition.
Why Do You Need Document Legalization or an Apostille?
When submitting documents to foreign authorities, they often require proof of authenticity. For example, documents issued in Canada may not be accepted abroad unless they are legalized or bear an apostille.
Since Canada is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, the process is significantly streamlined. An apostille certifies the authenticity of a document, including the signature, seal, or stamp of the issuing authority. This eliminates the need for additional legalization in the receiving country.
What Types of Documents Require Legalization or an Apostille?
DocsBase Canada can help with a variety of documents, such as:
Personal Documents
* Birth, marriage, and death certificates
* Divorce decrees
*Diplomas, transcripts, and certificates

*Tax registration certificates
Notarized Documents
*Powers of attorney
*Consents and affidavits
*Agreements and contracts
The Apostille and Legalization Process
Typically, the process includes the following steps:
1. Document Notarization: If required, a notary certifies a true copy or signature.
2. Translation (if necessary): Documents may need to be translated into the official language of the receiving country.
3. Apostille Certification: The appropriate Canadian authority, such as Global Affairs Canada, issues the apostille to certify the document’s authenticity.
