What Is an Apostille (and Why Spain Requires It)

An apostille is an international certification under the Hague Convention of 1961 that validates your U.S. FBI background check for legal use in Spain. With an apostille, you won’t need additional consular legalization.

Documents We Commonly Apostille

Personal: birth, marriage, and death certificates; divorce decrees; powers of attorney
Academic: diplomas, university transcripts, teaching credentials
Government & Legal: FBI background checks, state police records, notarized affidavits, court documents
Corporate: articles of incorporation, certificates of good standing, corporate powers of attorney

In Spain? We Also Handle FBI and Fingerprinting

Express NIE is your top source for apostille and sworn translations in Spain.

Already in Spain and need an FBI background check?

We guide you through fingerprinting locally and submit to the FBI electronically, then complete the U.S. apostille and (if needed) sworn Spanish translation—delivered to Algeciras.

Vital Records via VitalChek (You Request, We Apostille)

If your FBI background check is a vital record (e.g., birth/marriage/death certificate), you can order an official copy from VitalChek.com and then send it to us for apostille and, if required, sworn translation.
