Permission to Travel Apostille

May 26, 2019 by admin

Do you need an apostille on a Permission to Travel Letter?

At National Apostille, Inc., we take the guesswork out of obtaining an apostille on a permission to travel letter (AKA: Travel Consent Letter). We can apostille consent letters notarized in all 50 States and the District of Columbia (Washington DC).

The purpose of signing a permission to travel letter is to allow your minor child to travel outside of the Country with another person (Example: Father, Mother, Grandparents, Aunt, Uncle, etc..). You can obtain a travel consent letter from the airline, travel agency, or you can find a sample online.

Basically, the letter will state that you are giving permission to one or more people to take your child outside of the country. The letter should include travel dates, your name, the name of the child, the person the child will travel with, the country the child will travel too, passport numbers, and the return date. You will want to put as much information as possible include airline information.

The permission to travel letter will need to be signed and notarized by the person(s) giving permission. If both parents or legal custodians are giving permission to a minor child to travel outside of the USA, then all signatures must be signed and notarized. Once the document has been notarized, it can then be mailed in to our office for processing. You will need to download our apostille order forms and mail in your original notarized document to our office for processing. We recommend that you find a notary who has at least five years of experience and one who will follow the notarial laws of their state. Improperly notarized travel consent letters will be rejected by the State causing delays and additional costs.

Obtaining an apostille can be complicated. Don’t leave this process to untrained employees or non-professionals who do not fully understand the Apostille process and the unique requirements of certain countries. Your paperwork could be rejected costing you time and money. Don’t let this happen to you!

Our staff is available Monday-Saturday from 8am to 7pm to answer your questions and provide you easy to follow-step-by-step instructions. Please call us at 1-800-903-2470 or email: support@nationalapostille.com

US Embassy Single Status

May 2, 2019 by admin

Are you in another country and need an apostille on your Single Status?

Have you contacted the local U.S. Embassy office for information on how to obtain a single status? For a list of U.S. Embassies and U.S. Consulates around the world, click here: US Embassy

A U.S. Embassy will typically refer to this document as:

Affidavit of Civil Status
Eligibility to Marry
Single Status

Please note that you will need to make an appointment to meet with an official from the U.S. Embassy. A U.S. Federal notary public will need to be present to take your oath and notarize your signature on the document.

Once notarized, the next step is to mail in the original notarized copy with our Washington DC order forms to our Washington DC apostille office. Once we receive your documents at our office, the processing time is four business days.

If the U.S. Embassy is unable to assist you, you can contact the County Clerk in the County of your last residence. County Clerk offices typically refer to this document as:

No Record of Marriage
Certificate of Freedom to Marry
Certificate of No Impediment for Marriage
Certificate of No Record – Marriage
Affidavit of Single Status
Affidavit of Marriageability
Certificate of No Public Record

Here is an example of a single status affidavit issued from a U.S. Embassy:

Marriage Certificate Apostille

Do you need to apostille your Marriage Certificate? Were you married in the United States and need to register your wedding in another country?

In order to apostille your marriage certificate, you will need to mail in the original or County Clerk certified copy with our order forms.

At National Apostille Inc., we take the guesswork out of getting an apostille on your marriage certificate. Our trained and knowledgeable staff are available Monday – Saturday from 8am to 7pm to answer your questions and provide you easy to follow step-by-step instructions.

Common reasons why another country would request an Apostille on a Marriage Certificate are:

Registering your marriage in another country
Dual Citizenship
Death of Spouse
Interest & Ownership in Property
Inheritance

Marriage certificates can only be processed through the state of origin. For example, if you were married in California, then your certificate can only receive the California apostille. If you were married in New York, then your marriage certificate can only receive a New York apostille. The document is processed from the state of origin.

In order for your marriage certificate to receive an apostille, the country must be a member of the Hague Apostille Convention.

Obtaining an apostille can be complicated. Don’t leave this process to untrained employees or non-professionals who do not fully understand the apostille process and the unique requirements of certain countries. Your paperwork could be rejected costing you time and money. Don’t let this happen to you!

Single Status Apostille

February 8, 2019 by admin

Do you need to apostille a Single Status?

At National Apostille, Inc., we take the guesswork out of obtaining an apostille on your single status affidavit. We can apostille single status affidavits issued from all 50 States (County Clerk offices), the District of Columbia (Washington DC), and US Embassy and Consulate offices throughout the world.

If you are planning to get married in another country who is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, you will be asked to apostille a document called a Single Status.

This document may also be referred to as:

No Record of Marriage
Certificate of Freedom to Marry
Certificate of No Impediment for Marriage
Certificate of No Record – Marriage
Affidavit of Single Status
Affidavit of Marriageability
Certificate of No Public Record

Here is an example of a single status affidavit:

The first step is to contact the local County Clerk’s office to request a document that states you are currently not married (AKA: Single Status). Some County Clerk offices may refer to this document as a “no record of marriage” instead of a “single status”. Most all County Clerk offices can provide you this document so please be sure to speak to a supervisor if you are told otherwise. A document issued from the County Clerk’s office does not require notarization.

If the County Clerk is unable to assist you and you are in the United States, you can use the sample above to write your own single status affidavit. Basically, you are writing a sworn statement stating that you are currently not married to another person in the United States. Be sure to have this document signed and notarized before you mail it in to our office. You should also check with the people requesting your single status if they will accept a sworn affidavit directly from you.

If you are outside of the United States, the local US Embassy or US Consulate office should be able to assist you in completing a single status and also having it signed and notarized. Because you will be visiting U.S. Federal Government office, this document can then only be apostilled through our Washington DC apostille office.

Here is an example of US Embassy or US Consulate Single Status Affidavit:

Obtaining an apostille on your documents can be complicated and time consuming. Don’t leave this process to untrained employees or non-professionals who do not fully understand the Apostille process and the unique requirements of certain countries. Your paperwork could be rejected costing you time and money. Don’t let this happen to you!
