What is an “Apostille” for a Marriage Certificate?

An apostille is a specific type of certification by a government entity, usually produced in accordance with the Hague Convention (regarding apostille production), which certifies that your document is genuine and can be utilized internationally for various purposes. In regards to marriage certificates, apostille marriage certificates will be used as necessary proof that the marriage certificate can be acceptably processed internationally.

Pakistani citizens who are emigrating to Europe or a country that is a signatory to the Hague Convention must first obtain their apostille marriage certificates from the Government of Pakistan prior to arriving in the host country.
