We authenticate vital, academic, and corporate records from all 50 states for legal use in Ireland.
An apostille for Ireland 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 Ireland. Since both the United States and Ireland are members of the Hague Apostille Convention, a standard Hague apostille is the only legal certification required by Irish 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.
Applicants registering for Irish citizenship via the Foreign Births Register (FBR) must submit original, certified long-form birth and marriage certificates for all generations connecting them to the Irish-born grandparent. Every U.S. document in the chain must bear an individual state apostille.
Apostille certificates must remain permanently attached to the underlying vital records. Tampering with or removing the staple will invalidate the document for DFA review.
