Notarized Document apostille for Nicaragua.

Nicaraguan offices regularly receive Florida-notarized documents written in Spanish: consents, declarations, letters for the civil registry or Migración. That's fine. What Florida checks before it issues the apostille is the notarial certificate, which must be complete and in English even when the body is in Spanish: venue, date, signer's name, how the signer was identified, the notary's signature and seal. A Spanish-only notarial block, or one missing the identification line, gets rejected in Tallahassee before it ever reaches Nicaragua. If you're outside Florida, you can sign with our online notary.

Our standard for a translation is a translator's certification, notarized by a different notary, with its own Florida apostille. Nicaragua may instead require the translation to be made in Nicaragua: its notarial law (Ley 139) allows translations in a public deed before a Nicaraguan notary with at least ten years of incorporation, through an interpreter the notary appoints. Ask the receiving office which version it accepts before you pay for either.
