Frequently Asked Questions
What is an apostille and do I need one?
An apostille is an international certification that authenticates a document for use in another country (under the Hague Convention). Ecuador requires apostilled documents for most visa, legal, and SENESCYT processes. If your document was issued in the US, it needs a US apostille.
Which US documents need apostilles for Ecuador?
The most common documents requiring apostilles are birth certificates, marriage certificates, divorce decrees, FBI/state background checks, university diplomas, and transcripts. The specific requirements depend on your process (visa, SENESCYT, legal matter, etc.).
How long does the apostille process take?
Standard apostille processing through a US Secretary of State takes 2-4 weeks. Expedited processing (1-2 weeks) is available in most states for an additional fee. Federal documents (like FBI checks) go through the US Department of State.
Can I get just the translation without the apostille?
Yes. If your documents are already apostilled, we can provide just the certified translation. If you only need the apostille and not a translation, we can help with that too.
Do you translate the apostille certificate itself?
Yes. When Ecuador agencies require it, we translate both the document and the attached apostille certificate as part of the complete package.
