Notarisation and Apostille – What Is the Difference?
A Notary Public can authenticate documents, verify identities and witness signatures. An Apostille provides an additional form of authentication that may allow a notarised or official document to be recognised in another country.
Some documents therefore need to be notarised before an Apostille can be obtained, while others follow a different authentication process.
Hugh McGroddy can advise on the notarial requirements for your documents and, where appropriate, arrange for documents to be apostilled.
