Apostille sa Federal — U.S. Department of State

Na-verify noong August 9, 2026

Ang lahat ng nasa ibaba ay hango mula sa mga opisyal na pinagmulang inilathala ng opisinang ito mismo, at isinulat gamit ang sarili nitong mga salita. Ang halagang hindi namin nakumpirma laban sa isang opisyal na pahina ay may markang hindi pa na-verify — ngunit ang kawalan ng markang iyon ay hindi garantiya na na-check na ang isang katotohanan, at ang sariling pag-aalinlangan ng pinagmulan ay nananatili sa mga tala na muling isinulat dito nang salita-sa-salita. Kumpirmahin ang mga bayad, address, at deadline sa opisina bago magpadala ng mga dokumento o pera.

Sino ang nagbibigay ng apostille

Nararapat na awtoridad

U.S. Department of State — Office of Authentications

Issues apostilles (Hague countries) and authentication certificates (non-Hague countries) for documents issued by the U.S. federal government. State-issued documents (birth certificates, state notarizations, etc.) go to the state competent authority, NOT the federal office. The $8.00 fee figure still shown on the HCCH authorities page is OUTDATED — the current fee is $20 per document. Fax on HCCH listing: +1 (202) 663-3636

Aling mga Dokumento ang Tinatanggap ng Opisinang Ito

Mula sa pinagmulan: Document must be "an original or certified copy"; "seals and signatures are originals"; must include "legible signature of the official's name, printed name and title, and seal of the agency." Warning verbatim: "Do not notarize your document. Your document will no longer be valid if it is notarized." (applies to federal-agency documents; a translation, if needed, is what gets notarized)

Ayon sa Uri ng Dokumento

Uri ng Dokumento

Ano ang Kinakailangan ng Opisinang Ito

electronically/digitally signed federal documents (e.g., the digitally signed FBI eDO PDF) hindi pa na-verify

no explicit policy published — travel.state.gov requires that "seals and signatures are originals" on an "original or certified copy"

(unverified whether a printed digitally-signed FBI Identity History Summary is accepted; practitioners commonly submit the printed FBI PDF, but no official statement located on travel.state.gov)

Ang markang “hindi pa na-verify” ay nangangahulugang hindi namin nakumpirma ang halagang ito laban sa isang opisyal na pahina. Ang mga katotohanang walang markang ito ay hindi rin dahil dito na-audit — laging kumpirmahin ang pera at address sa opisina bago magpadala ng anuman.

Mga Sertipikasyong Maaaring Kailanganin Muna

Walang dagdag na hakbang ng sertipikasyon na kailangan bago ang apostille.

Pagche-check ng Status at Pag-verify ng Apostille

I-verify ang Isang Inilabas na Apostille

Walang nailathalang pampublikong rehistro ng pag-verify para sa opisinang ito. Hindi ito katumbas ng hindi mave-verify ang isang apostille — tanungin ang opisina kung paano nila ito kinukumpirma.

I-check ang Status ng Isang Kahilingan

https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/contact-us/authentications.html

No online tracking portal. Status checks via the Contact Us web form ("We will respond to you within 7 days" / "via email or phone call in the next week") or phone 202-485-8000, hours "9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. EST Monday through Friday"

Serbisyong Notarial Online na Malayuan (Remote Online Notarization)

Ang awtoridad na ito ay naglalabas ng apostille ngunit hindi nagbibigay ng komisyon sa sinumang Notary Public, kaya walang mga patakaran sa remote notarization sa antas na ito. Nasa estado o probinsiya ang mga ito kung saan hawak ng Notary Public ang kanilang komisyon.

Iba Pang Sinasabi ng Pinagmulan

Documents that require the FEDERAL apostille are those signed by a "U.S. federal official," "U.S. consular officer," "Military notary or judge advocate," or "Foreign consul registered with the U.S. Department of State's Office of Protocol." Examples listed on travel.state.gov: "FBI background checks issued by U.S. Department of Justice" (FBI Identity History Summary) and "Federal court documents ... issued by U.S. Department of Justice" [sic]; "Certification of U.S. tax residency issued by Internal Revenue Service (IRS)" (Form 6166); USDA animal and plant certifications; USPTO patent and trademark applications; DHS certificate of naturalization; documents issued by the "Environmental Protection Agency, Social Security Administration, or Office of Personnel Management". FDA export certificates and DEA documents are federal-agency documents and follow the same route but are not itemized by name on the examples list (unverified as named examples — the "any U.S. federal official" rule covers them). E-register: no public online e-register for federal apostilles was located on travel.state.gov (unverified — no e-register page found as of Aug 2026); verification of an issued federal apostille is by contacting the Office of Authentications. Emergency appointments: authcert@state.gov
