Notarized Document apostille for Romania.

Romanian offices accept many declarations signed abroad before a foreign notary, as long as they carry an apostille: the civil-status rules say so for the married-name declaration, and the border rules say so for a parent's travel consent. That makes a Florida notarization a practical alternative to booking an appointment at the consulate in Miami. Florida checks the notarial certificate before it apostilles: complete, in English, with venue, date, signer, identification, notary signature and seal. Remember the whole document, certificate included, will need a legalized Romanian translation.

Our standard for a translation is a translator's certification, notarized by a different notary, with its own Florida apostille. Romanian civil-status offices instead expect the translation to be legalized in Romania by a public notary (from a translator authorized in Romania) or certified by a Romanian consular office; a translation made abroad before a foreign notary must itself carry an apostille. Ask the office receiving your file which version it accepts before you pay.
