An apostille confirms a specific legal point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It does not prove everything inside the document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This distinction matters, especially when an overseas authority asks for a UK document to be legalised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Apostille Confirms the Signature, Seal or Stamp<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

An FCDO apostille usually confirms the authenticity of a signature, seal or stamp on a UK public document.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For solicitor-certified documents, the apostille often confirms the solicitor\u2019s signature and capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other words, the FCDO confirms the public official element. It does not usually investigate every fact in the document itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sample e-Apostille package makes this distinction clear by directing recipients to verify the apostille certificate and by including a separate public document and apostille certificate inside the PDF package.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

An apostille does not normally confirm:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
