The Hague Apostille Convention (1961) simplifies the legalization of international documents, including marriage documents.

If your country is a member of the Hague Convention, you can get an apostille stamp on your marriage certificate. This makes the document legally valid and recognized in all other member countries, without the need for additional legalization at embassies or consulates.

📌 In short:

The Hague Convention makes it easier to use your marriage documents internationally by providing a single, internationally accepted apostille certification.
