Apostille for extracts from French Guiana

If you want to submit a document from French Guiana to courts or authorities in another country, it requires legalization. French Guiana acceded to the Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents in 1965.

This means that no diplomatic authentication or legalization of documents from French Guiana is required for legal transactions in another member state of the Convention. The documents only need to be provided with an "apostille" by the authorities of the issuing state in order to be used in the destination state. The apostille confirms the authenticity of the seal and signature, but not the authenticity of the contents.

You can order an extract without mandatory registration or subscription. Just complete our form and our employees will investigate for missing information, provide you with the extract, translate it to English and deliver the original, the translation as well as the bill for our services to you via mail.
There is no risk involved for you as we provide you with the documents in question on a fixed price. If requested, we will have the extract verified and apostilled. The documents are sent to you by mail. Special fees for the apostille apply.
