If you need to use Panamanian documents abroad, an apostille is a mandatory requirement. We offer comprehensive apostille services for clients in Panama City and throughout the country. Apostille certificates are issued by the Office of Authentication and Legalization of the Panamanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, other Panamanian government entities, such as the Judiciary and the Ministry of Government, are also authorized to issue apostilles.
We offer a courier service for clients who are unable to bring the document to the apostille office in Panama.
