## Tko izdaje apostille

U.S. Department of State — Passport Vital Records Section

NOT the Office of Authentications — the Passport Vital Records Section issues (and apostilles) overseas U.S.-citizen vital records: Consular Report of Birth Abroad (CRBA, FS-240), Consular Reports of Death Abroad, and certificates of witness to marriage. HCCH lists this office as a separate federal competent authority ("no fee for issuance or an apostille on a document bearing the seal")

## Koje dokumente ovaj ured prihvaća

- **Iz izvora:** Mail: a "Notarized, completed Form DS-5542" + "Photocopy of a valid photo ID" + check or money order. Death/marriage apostille process mirrors CRBA — (unverified as separately stated on travel.state.gov)

## Ovjere koje vam možda prvo trebaju

Prije postupka apostille nije potreban nikakav dodatni korak ovjere.

## Obrazac zahtjeva

Obrazac zahtjeva u PDF formatu. Broj obrasca: DS-5542 Gdje ga nabaviti: https://eforms.state.gov/Forms/ds5542.PDF Form DS-5542 "Request for Overseas U.S. Citizen Vital Records" — the form must itself be NOTARIZED; covers all "Overseas U.S. Citizen Vital Records"

## Podnošenje zahtjeva online

Ne postoji mogućnost online podnošenja — ovaj ured prima zahtjeve samo u papirnatom obliku.

## Koliko to košta

- **$0.00 USD** po dokumentu — Odnosi se na:apostille on an existing CRBA/consular vital record — Apostille itself: NO fee. Verbatim: "You don't need to pay for an apostille if you have a Consular Report of Birth Abroad issued within the last 5 years." Confirms HCCH's "no fee" statement
- **$50.00 USD** po dokumentu — Odnosi se na:new certified copy of the CRBA (required when the record is older than 5 years) — "The cost is $50 if you need a new copy of your Consular Report of Birth Abroad." — $50 buys a new certified copy; the apostille is added at no charge

## Kako platiti

- **Poštom:** ček ili novčana uputnica
- **Ispostavite na ime:** U.S. Department of State — Prepišite točno onako kako je napisano.
- Uplata mora biti izdana od strane banke u SAD-u.
- Check or money order payable to "U.S. Department of State" (U.S. dollars, U.S. bank)

## Kamo poslati dokumente

- **Poštanska adresa (USPS — ne FedEx / UPS / DHL):** U.S. Department of State, Passport Vital Records Section, 44132 Mercure Cir., PO Box 1213, Sterling, VA 20166-1213
- Ova adresa je poštanski pretinac — komercijalne kurirske službe (FedEx / UPS / DHL) ne mogu dostaviti pošiljku na poštanski pretinac. Za slanje kurirskom službom prvo potvrdite adresu s nazivom ulice u uredu.

## Koliko dugo traje

- **Poštom:** "We should process it in 4 to 8 weeks" (locating some records can take longer; National Archives manual searches "will take 6 months")

## Checking status and verifying an apostille

- Za ovaj ured nije objavljen javni registar za provjeru. To ne znači da se apostille ne može provjeriti — raspitajte se u uredu kako to potvrđuje.

## Udaljena internetska javnobilježnička ovjera

Ovo tijelo izdaje apostille, ali ne ovlašćuje osobe za obavljanje javnobilježničkih radnji, pa na ovoj razini ne postoje pravila o udaljenoj ovjeri. Ona pripadaju državi ili pokrajini u kojoj ta osoba ima takvo ovlaštenje.

> **RCW 42.45.230(5):** Nisam odvjetnik ovlašten za obavljanje pravne djelatnosti u ovoj saveznoj državi. Nije mi dopušteno sastavljati pravne isprave, davati savjete o pravnim pitanjima, uključujući imigracijska, niti naplaćivati naknadu za te aktivnosti.
