Question 1

How does an Apostille differ from embassy legalisation?

Accepted Answer

An Apostille is a certification issued under the Hague Apostille Convention that verifies the authenticity of a document's origin. It is recognized by member countries, streamlining the legalization process for international use. Embassy legalization, on the other hand, is required for countries outside the Hague Convention and involves additional steps, such as consular authentication by the destination country’s embassy.

Question 2

Which countries accept Apostilles for Cayman Islands corporate documents?

Accepted Answer

Countries that are signatories to the Hague Apostille Convention accept Apostilles for Cayman Islands corporate documents. This includes most European countries, the United States, Australia, and several others. It’s advisable to check the destination country’s requirements to ensure compliance.

Question 3

Can a document be Apostilled if it has already been certified by another authority, like a notary or public accountant?

Accepted Answer

Yes, a document can be Apostilled after being certified by a notary or public accountant, provided the certification complies with the requirements of the Cayman Islands registry. Apostilling such documents confirms the authenticity of the prior certification and ensures their validity in Hague Convention member countries.

Question 4

Are there instances where an Apostille needs to be reissued or updated?

Accepted Answer

An Apostille typically does not expire, but certain jurisdictions or authorities may require a recently issued Apostille for specific transactions or legal processes. In such cases, you may need to obtain a new Apostille for the document.

Question 5

Does an Apostille verify the content of the document or only its authenticity?

Accepted Answer

An Apostille does not verify the content of the document. Instead, it confirms the authenticity of the document's origin, such as the signature and seal of the issuing authority in the Cayman Islands. This ensures that the document is legitimate and can be recognized internationally.

Question 6

Can a revoked or invalid corporate document still receive an Apostille?

Accepted Answer

No, an Apostille cannot be issued for a revoked or invalid corporate document. The document must be current, valid, and issued by a legitimate authority in the Cayman Islands to qualify for Apostille certification.
