   Important Information on electronic Apostilles (e-Apostilles) An e-Apostille is an official Apostille issued in digital form. It is created and signed electronically and linked to a secure digital certificate. An e-Apostille cannot be refused simply because it is issued in electronic form. The same rules and procedures apply when issuing an e-Apostille as when issuing a paper Apostille. As a result, an e-Apostille is just as valid as a paper Apostille and must be accepted by all Contracting Parties to the Apostille Convention. An e-Apostille offers faster processing, enhanced security, and greater convenience for users and authorities. Notice on the Acceptance of e-Apostilles. Please note that the Permanent Bureau of the HCCH has no mandate to issue or verify Apostille Certificates. Apostille Certificates can only be issued and verified by designated Competent Authorities of Contracting Parties to the 1961 Apostille Convention. A full list of Contracting Parties and the contact details of their Competent Authorities can be found here . For individuals seeking further information regarding Apostille Certificates, please contact the relevant Competent Authority.
