VITAL RECORDS
Birth, Marriage, and Divorce Certificate Apostilles
Birth, marriage, and divorce certificates are commonly apostilled for Brickell clients handling dual citizenship, international marriage recognition, and family immigration matters. Only certified copies from the authorized state or county issuing agency are accepted — notarized copies do not qualify for these document types. Divorce decrees require a certified copy from the issuing court, not a vital records office.
FBI
FBI Background Check Apostille for Brickell Clients
FBI Identity History Summary reports require a federal apostille issued by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. This is frequently requested by Brickell's international residents and foreign investors for visas, residency, and work permits abroad. Note: an FBI apostille authenticates the official signature on the report — it does not automatically satisfy business licensing clearance requirements, which vary by destination authority and document type.
ACADEMIC
Diploma and Transcript Apostilles
University diplomas and transcripts — including from FIU, University of Miami, and Nova Southeastern — are apostilled for foreign employment, professional licensing, and continued education abroad. Requirements vary by issuing state and institution. In most cases, notarization is required before apostille; some institutions issue registrar-certified copies that may be eligible for direct apostille depending on the issuing state's rules. This is not an automatic exemption — confirm the procedure with the institution and the receiving authority.
CORPORATE & LEGAL
Corporate and Legal Document Apostilles
- Corporate bylaws and resolutions
- Powers of attorney
- Commercial contracts
- Certificates of Good Standing
- Court judgments and notarized affidavits
Brickell's concentration of law firms, banks, and corporate headquarters generates frequent demand for apostilled contracts, resolutions, and powers of attorney for international business and legal matters. Filed public records (e.g., Certificates of Good Standing) are certified by the issuing agency. Private-signed corporate documents require notarization before apostille. Powers of attorney must be notarized before apostille; signing worldwide is subject to identity verification, witness requirements, document eligibility, and recipient jurisdiction law. Notarization is coordinated — not legal drafting; consult a licensed attorney for document preparation.

An apostille authenticates the official signature on the document — it does not automatically confer legal validity for real estate transactions or guarantee acceptance by a foreign authority. Applicability depends on the Hague Convention or applicable bilateral agreement, the receiving authority's requirements, and local law. Consult a licensed attorney for guidance on your specific transaction.
