Certificate of Origin Legalization and Apostille
Certificates of origin are trade documents that certify the country where goods were manufactured. Many importing countries require the certificate of origin to be apostilled or legalized before customs will accept it. Miami Dade Apostille handles both apostille and embassy legalization for certificates of origin.
When Is an Apostille Required?
An apostille on a certificate of origin is typically required when the importing country is a Hague member and its customs authority or trade ministry requires authenticated proof of origin. This is common for preferential tariff claims, anti-dumping investigations, and regulatory compliance.
When Is Embassy Legalization Required?
For non-Hague countries — including many in the Middle East, Africa, and parts of Asia — the certificate of origin must be legalized by the destination country's embassy or consulate after the apostille. We handle the full legalization chain from Miami.
Chamber of Commerce Certificates
Certificates of origin issued by a Chamber of Commerce are private documents. They must be notarized before they can receive an apostille. We coordinate notarization and apostille for Chamber-issued certificates.
