Ratification of notarized and public documents

Shell you need a notarized ratification of a document ordered previously, we will make an apostille on that document, including apostille in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and / or apostille in an authorized court. Apostille is carried out in accordance with the Hague Convention concerning the approval of public documents among countries that signed the convention. Documents intended for countries that did not sign to the Convention need special ratification available in authorized courts and / or government ministries.

In accordance with the Hague Convention, notarized documents, which are designed for a particular state may require an apostille ratification. We provide our clients with an apostille and document ratification for purely Notary public israel documents and notarized documents originating from official documents that require additional and different apostille.
