Apostille for Tonga and Apostille Treaty

Tonga became a member of the Hague (Apostille) Convention on June 4, 1970. The Apostille Treaty also known as the Hague Convention is an agreement between over 50 countries signed in the year of 1961. The aim of the treaty was to abolish the requirements of consular legalization of the public documents meant for foreign countries, the parties to the above stated convention.

Thus, if a document is intended to be presented before official authorities in Tonga, it is mandatory for it to be apostilled in the other country – who is a member of the apostille agreement, in order to be accepted abroad.

Getting the documents intended for Tonga apostilled is not a difficult procedure. Nonetheless, it is advised to have in mind that, each document is prepared in a different way. For instance, a document signed by an individual and notarized by a Notary Public, is typically prepared in two easy steps –authentication and apostille. While such documents as Vital Records, FBI Background Check Certificate, corporate and business documents, etc. require in–depth knowledge of which agencies and departments are involved in the process of obtaining apostille.

Therefore, if you are dealing with the documents for the first time, it is wise to retain professional Apostille services that will help you to save your time and money. Correspondingly, if prepared by the skilled notaries and Apostille agents in association with generally recognized procedures and international rules, your documents will be guaranteed a 100% approval by foreign bodies.
