  • A valid signature is provided from a current State Registrar
  • Karyl Thomas Rattay’s signature is acceptable

 

Please note:

 

  • If a Delaware Certificate of Good Standing is provided for a document, said document is acceptable for an apostille.

 

Scanned Photocopy of Original Document

You will need to make sure of the following:

 

  • Appropriate signature is NOT provided
  • Original document is damaged
  • Original document was issued over 10 years ago
  • Destination country accepts apostilles of the scanned photocopy of the original document; most countries do accept an apostille of the scanned photocopy
  • You need the apostille within 24 hours

 

Please note:
