Certificate of Naturalization Apostille Through Washington DC
 

Apostille for U.S. Certificate of Naturalization for International Use

Miami Dade Apostille helps clients obtain an apostille for a U.S. Certificate of Naturalization for use outside the United States. This service is for individuals who need to present proof of U.S. citizenship to a foreign government, consulate, court, registry office, university, immigration office, or international authority.

A Certificate of Naturalization is a federal document issued by USCIS. Because it is a federal immigration document, it cannot be apostilled by the Florida Secretary of State or any state apostille office. It must be processed through the U.S. Department of State Office of Authentications in Washington DC.

Apostille Through Washington DC

Because naturalization certificates are federal USCIS documents, the apostille is handled through:

U.S. Department of State
Office of Authentications
Washington DC

The U.S. Department of State issues apostille certificates for documents used in countries that are part of the 1961 Hague Convention and authentication certificates for countries that are not part of the Hague Convention.  

Apostille vs. Authentication

The type of certification depends on the country where the document will be used.

If the destination country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, the document generally requires an apostille.

If the destination country is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention, the document may require authentication and embassy or consular legalization instead.

Miami Dade Apostille can help review the destination country requirement before processing.
 

Translation May Be Required

If the Certificate of Naturalization will be used in a country where English is not the official language, the receiving authority may require a certified translation.

Depending on the country, you may need:

• Certified translation

• Notarized translation

• Apostille of the translation
