India joined the Hague Apostille Convention on July 14, 2005.
Legal documents intended for use in a country which is a member of the Hague Convention require an Apostille, which is Notarization and then Secretary of State Certification.

Tips when requesting an Apostille:
- Corporate or Personal documents must first be notarized by a Local Notary.
- All Corporate or Personal Documents are then sent to the Secretary of State in which the Notary is Certified for Apostille to be issued.
- All Federal documents must be processed through the U.S. State Department in Washington D.C.

Please complete the attached request form and credit card authorization form (if paying by credit card) and send along with your document to Washington Express Visas and Document Legalization.
In order to obtain legalization, we will need the original document. This needs to be a signed-and-notarized or a State-issued Document.
The Legalization processing time at the Embassies varies, but usually takes about 3 – 5 business days.
