Seal of the 海牙授权 and Certificates of Authentication

An "Apostille" is an internationally recognized document certification, developed so official documents can be reliably shared and certified across international boundaries. In New York, the 海牙授权 process is managed by the New York Department of State Division of Licensing Services. 在某些情况下, a Certificate of Authentication will be issued by the New York Secretary of State to authenticate public document for use in any country which is not a member of the Hague Convention.  Students will work with the Registrar's Office, the County Clerk and the Department of State to receive authentication. Students who are attending foreign universities, or who are applying to study or work overseas, may need documents certified with the Seal of the 海牙授权.
