## Quién emite la apostilla

Minister of Justice of Québec (Ministère de la Justice du Québec)

Apostille issuance office ("Délivrance des apostilles"), Montréal. Covers documents issued in Québec only: public-body documents (birth certificates, diplomas), court documents (Superior Court, municipal courts), authentic/notarial acts (documents received by Québec notaries), and private documents from persons/bodies "having an establishment in Québec" once "officially certified by a lawyer or notary" (affidavits, consent letters, baptismal certificates, powers of attorney). Originals or copies certified true by the issuer accepted. "Québec does not issue apostilles for documents issued by a federal authority, a territory or another province" — those go to Global Affairs Canada

## Qué documentos acepta esta oficina

## Checking status and verifying an apostille

- **Verificar una apostilla emitida:** https://registreapostilles.gouv.qc.ca — Québec runs its own apostille register (not part of the GAC shared tool)

## Notarización remota en línea

- La notarización remota en línea está permitida aquí.
- **Fundamento legal:** Notaries Act (CQLR c. N-3) — current ss. 35.1 ("Notarial acts en minute must be executed in and preserved on a technological medium according to the procedure determined by regulation") and 46 ("The notary may exceptionally... authorize a party who so requests to sign the act remotely"), as amended by S.Q. 2023, c. 23
- **Cómo se identifica al firmante:** Notary must verify identity per Notaries Act/CNQ standards — government ID presented via videoconference and secure digital-signature platform (CNQ ecosystem, e.g., ConsignO Cloud) (platform detail unverified on CNQ site); notary must ensure "quality of his or her professional services" and "confidentiality of the information exchanged." No KBA
- Aquí no se registra ninguna tarifa máxima para un acto remoto. La ausencia de un tope no equivale a «sin tope» — el motivo figura en las notas de abajo.
- **Según la fuente:** Permitted, permanent for notaries: notarial acts on a technological medium. History: temporary Ministerial Order 2020-4304 (Apr 27, 2020) allowed remote notarial acts during the health emergency; made durable and then permanent through amendments to the Notaries Act (assented 2023; some technological-medium provisions phased in force by regulation — in-force status of specific paragraphs as of Aug 2026 (unverified); bill number (unverified)). Chambre des notaires currently advertises "Signing a technology-based notarial act remotely" as an available service. Remote act closes "at the place where the notary signs it." Note: commissioners for oaths cannot handle apostille-bound sworn statements (see this page's document rules). Who can do it: notaries (notarial acts, via CNQ-approved platform with digital signature); commissioners for oaths for ordinary sworn statements (remote oath practice per Code of Civil Procedure/courts — (unverified)); lawyers for affidavits used in court. Fee rules: no statutory tariff for most notarial acts — fees set by agreement; market remote rates vary widely by act (e.g., POA/declarations commonly $100–$300+ at Quebec notary firms) (market range unverified/no single official source). Apostille interplay: GAC and provincial competent authorities require original/wet-ink signatures and seals — remotely executed, purely electronic notarizations are generally unusable for apostille unless printed/wet-signed by the commissioner
