Why you may need an apostille for Kansas documents

An apostille is required when a Kansas-issued document will be used in a country that is part of the Hague Apostille Convention. It confirms the document's authenticity so it can be legally recognized abroad. If the destination country is not part of the Hague Convention, Kansas issues a certification instead.

Common reasons Kansas documents need an apostille include dual citizenship, visa applications, studying abroad, marriage abroad, international business, adoption, and foreign legal requirements.
