Apostille Academic Degrees and Transcripts

School records often need a specific certification before they can be submitted.

Ask the receiving institution

Confirm whether it needs the diploma, transcript, both, or a school-issued verification. Ask whether an apostille and a certified translation are required.

Check the school document

For Florida school records, the Florida Department of State guidance describes the applicable notarization or certification steps. Requirements vary by document and issuing institution; an ordinary scan is not automatically eligible.

Use the correct jurisdiction

The competent authority generally follows where the record or notarial act originated. An academic record issued or notarized in another state may require that state’s process. Share the document with us before mailing an original.

This is general information. Florida Apostillar is a private document coordination company; the competent authority issues the apostille. Confirm requirements with the receiving institution.
