We authenticate vital, academic, and corporate records from all 50 states for legal use in Greece.
An apostille for Greece is an official certificate that verifies the authenticity of U.S. public documents (such as FBI background checks, birth certificates, and marriage certificates) for use in Greece. Since both the United States and Greece are members of the Hague Apostille Convention, a standard Hague apostille is the only legal certification required by Greek authorities.
For state-issued vital records (birth, marriage, or divorce certificates), the apostille must be issued by the Secretary of State where the document was originally recorded. For federal documents like FBI Background Checks, the apostille is issued by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C.
Greek civil registry offices (Lixiarcheio) strictly enforce rules regarding the condition and recency of vital records. Documents submitted for marriage or citizenship should generally be issued within the preceding 6 months. FBI background checks for Golden Visa or Digital Nomad applications must be dated within 90 days.
The apostille must be physically stapled and attached to the certified state or federal record. Once apostilled, the document must be translated into Greek. We ensure your documents meet all consular standards before dispatch.
