Document Apostille for Australia

Legalization of public documents for Australia

The significance of getting documents attested is second to none. Apostille is the attestation of the legitimacy and authenticity of a Public Official or Officer who has signed and issued such a document. Apostille is issued by the competent Public Authority of the Country where the certificate or document has been formed and issued. Through this attestation, a public document or certificate is authenticated and certified to be legally valid in other nations of the Hague Conference on Private International Law on October 5, 1961.

Apostilles might only be issued and affixed by a Competent Authority designated by the State where the target document or certificate has been executed or released. If you are looking forward to get your documents attested for Australia then it is important to know that there are two designated competent authorities that act of the type of document to be apostilled:
