Alabama Power of Attorney Apostille

If you need an Alabama Power of Attorney recognized in another country, an apostille is required. The document must be properly notarized by a currently commissioned Alabama notary public before submission to the Alabama Secretary of State. 

An Alabama Power of Attorney requires an apostille when it will be used outside the United States to confirm the authenticity of the notarization. 

A POA is a private document that must be notarized before it can be apostilled. The notarization must be performed while the signer personally appears before the notary and the signer must present valid, government issued photo ID.

Processing time varies based on state processing volume. Expedited facilitation options may be available. 

• Documents must be properly notarized before submission
• Apostilles are only valid for use in Hague Convention member countries
