Authentication of U.S. public documents is required for legal use in Slovakia. To get an apostille for Slovakia, your documents must be certified through the proper U.S. authorities. An Apostille verifies the authenticity of public documents, allowing Slovak authorities to recognize them.
Slovakia became a member of the Hague Apostille Convention on June 6, 2001, meaning U.S. documents need only a U.S. Apostille and do not require further embassy or consular legalization.
When U.S. Documents Are Needed in Slovakia
Slovakia acceded to the Hague Apostille Convention on June 6, 2001, and the convention entered into force immediately for Slovakia. U.S. documents are often required in Slovakia for family, academic, business, or legal purposes.
Birth and marriage certificates are used for family law matters, such as inheritance, name changes, or spousal benefits. Educational diplomas, transcripts, and powers of attorney support academic recognition, business, and property transactions.
Court orders, affidavits, and other notarial documents are often required for legal proceedings under Slovak law. Documents bearing a U.S. Apostille are legally valid in Slovakia without further verification.
Get an Apostille for Slovakia
To get an apostille for Slovakia, U.S. documents must first be notarized if required. State-issued documents, such as birth, marriage, or educational certificates, must be certified by the Secretary of State in the issuing state.
Federal documents, including FBI background checks or FDA certificates, are authenticated by the U.S. Department of State. After authentication, the U.S. Department of State issues the final Apostille certificate, making the document legally valid for use in Slovakia.
