The term “Apostille” refers to The Hague Apostille Convention. An apostille is a type of document certification that allows a document from one apostille signatory country to be used in another apostille country. Canada has now signed the Hague Apostille Convention and it took effect in January 2024.

Previously, the process in Canada was called “Authentication and Legalization”, a similar process that allowed Canadian documents to be used in another country.
