Frequently Asked Questions
What documents do English teachers need apostilled?
Most countries require apostilled diplomas, criminal background checks, and birth certificates. Some countries also require apostilled teaching certificates (TEFL/TESOL) and medical clearances.
Do I need an FBI background check or a state background check?
Many countries (South Korea, China, UAE, Japan) require an FBI background check apostilled by the U.S. Department of State. Some accept a state-level background check apostilled by the Secretary of State.
How long does an FBI background check apostille take?
FBI background checks are federal documents apostilled by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. Standard processing takes 6-8 weeks; expedited service takes approximately 5-7 business days.
Can you apostille documents for teaching in South Korea, China, or the UAE?
Yes. We apostille documents for teaching positions in all Hague Convention countries. For non-Hague countries like China, we handle consular legalization through the Chinese consulate.
