Document Apostille forEcuador

If you have Canadian documents that you need to use in Ecuador, you will need to “apostille” your documents at the appropriate government office in Canada. There are a few things to note about this process.

1. The term “apostille” refers to the Hague Apostille Convention. Canada is a signatory to the Hague Apostille Convention and therefore, can issue apostilles.
2. An apostille can be obtained from Global Affairs Canada or the appropriate provincial authority. This depends on where your documents were issued and/or notarized. Be careful to research the jurisdictions in advance, or your documents may be refused.

Yes, we can apostille your Criminal Record Check for use in Ecuador. Canada is a signatory to The Hague Apostille Convention and so is Ecuador. Therefore, once your criminal record check has been apostilled, it will be ready to use in Ecuador.

There are two types of Criminal Record Checks that are issued in Canada. One is issued by the local Police Station and is based solely on your name and date of birth. The second type is issued by the RCMP Headquarters and includes fingerprints. If you need a Criminal Record Check for residency or retirement purposes, you will need the RCMP Certified Criminal Record Check with fingerprints.

This way, you won’t have to wait while it is delivered to you to then turn around and re-send it to us for apostille.

Document “apostille” certificates are issued by countries that are signatories to the Hague Apostille Convention. Because Canada had not signed the Hague Apostille Convention, we use a different but equivalent process called “document authentication and legalization“. However, in January 2024 Canada will finally be able to issue an Apostille on a Canadian document.

The primary difference between these two processes is that an apostille certificate will be recognized by any country that has signed the Hague Apostille Convention, whereas a document that has been authenticated and legalized will only be recognized by one specific country – the country that has legalized the document.
