Apostille a Distribution Agreement or Agent Power of Attorney

Distribution agreements and agent powers of attorney are key documents for companies expanding internationally. When used abroad, these documents must be notarized and apostilled to be legally recognized by foreign courts, registries, and business partners.

Distribution Agreements

A distribution agreement grants a foreign distributor the right to sell your products in a specific territory. When the agreement needs to be registered with a foreign authority or used in legal proceedings abroad, it must be notarized and apostilled. We coordinate the full authentication process.

Agent Power of Attorney

A power of attorney for a foreign agent authorizes the agent to act on your behalf in a specific country — signing contracts, registering products, dealing with customs, or representing you before government agencies. This document must be notarized and apostilled before the agent can use it.

Notarization and Apostille

Both distribution agreements and agent POAs are private documents that must be notarized before receiving an apostille. We coordinate notarization by a Florida notary public and then obtain the apostille from the Florida Secretary of State.

Translation

Many countries require these documents in the local language. We can arrange certified translation along with the apostille service. Call 1-800-631-9171 or WhatsApp us.

Prepare your documents with confidence

A distribution agreement and authority to sign it are separate documents. Confirm which one the counterparty needs authenticated, who signs and whether schedules must accompany it.

A power of attorney must be suitable for the transaction where it will be used. Start with the receiving lawyer, notary, registry or institution’s approved wording. Signing and authentication can establish the origin of a signature, but they do not determine whether the powers granted are sufficient or whether the transaction can proceed.

Check that all pages, certification sheets and attachments are present. Keep the recipient’s written instructions and confirm where completed documents should be delivered. Timing is confirmed after document review and depends on preparation, the competent authority, translation and delivery.

Tell us the document, its issuer, destination country and intended use, and your deadline. We will review preparation, translation and delivery options before confirming an estimate and timing. Ask for instructions before mailing originals. Please mail with a tracking number.

Have the recipient confirm the wording, signers, property or account details, and whether witnesses or a specific signing format are needed.

Check identification and spelling before signing; changes after notarization may require a new execution.

Confirm whether the original power and its attachments must travel together and whether a translation is required.

Can you choose the legal powers that my document should grant?

The receiving legal professional should approve that wording. We can review document preparation and the authentication route after you have the approved document and signing instructions.

What should I confirm before requesting an estimate?

Provide the document, issuer, destination, intended use, number of copies and deadline. Include the recipient’s checklist if available. This allows preparation, certification, translation and delivery to be reviewed before a cost estimate is confirmed.
