Who will attach the apostille to my documents?
An apostille is attached by the state or U.S. Federal Government.

Does an apostille verify the contents of a document?
No.  An apostille only verifies the official who has signed your document.  Keep in mind the state will also verify that the document presented to them is authenticate and issued by their state.  Be sure to check your documents to make sure they are accurate before you get an apostille.

Does an apostille expire?
No.  An apostille does not expire but the country requesting it may have set a time limit on how old the document and/or apostille can be.

Does an FBI background check expire?
