An apostille certifies the authenticity of signatures and seals on U.S. public documents for international use. Clients often need to get an apostille for Switzerland to use records for work, study, family matters, or legal purposes.
Apostille Corp handles the process efficiently and carefully, focusing exclusively on documents issued in the United States. No foreign documents can be processed. Each request is managed with clear communication and timely updates so clients can rely on their records in Switzerland.
When U.S. Documents Are Needed in Switzerland
Switzerland joined the Hague Apostille Convention on March 11, 1973, with the treaty entering into force shortly after. U.S. documents must carry an apostille for acceptance in Swiss offices. This includes personal, educational, legal, and business records.
Switzerland recognizes the apostille as sufficient authentication, so embassy legalization is not usually required. Notaries public (Notarius Publicus) in Switzerland handle domestic documents, but U.S. records must first receive an apostille from the correct U.S. authority.
Many people need U.S. documents in Switzerland for work, study, family matters, or legal obligations. Birth certificates, marriage certificates, diplomas, and FBI background checks are common. The apostille confirms the signature or seal on these documents, making them valid for Swiss authorities. Federal documents require submission to the U.S. Department of State.
State-issued records are apostilled through the Secretary of State in the issuing state. Notarization may be required for certain private documents.
