In Canada, the terms apostille and attestation both refer to the process of having your document submitted and approved by the competent government authority in Canada.

Around the world, different terms are used to describe the process of certifying a document for use in another country. If you have been told you need to have a birth certificate with an apostille, or authentication and legalization, or attestation, they refer to the country of origin’s process of document verification.

Once you have confirmed that you have the correct format birth certificate and you know the requirements of the destination country, you can start the process.
