The goal of the treaty was to put to the end the requirements of consular legalization of the official documents intended for foreign countries, the parties of the above stated convention.

Therefore, if a document is planned to be presented before official establishments in Croatia, it is necessary to get it apostilled in order to be accepted by the Croatian authorities.
