Vietnam is transitioning to the Apostille effective September 11, 2026. **Thailand will transition to the Apostille process in the "near future" (whenever that is, late 2026 or 2027).
All states have a department dedicated to this and the same with all universities and colleges. They do this "notarize a diploma" stuff everyday. So even if your college isn’t in Florida, I honestly believe this information will help you. *Make contact with your Registrar’s Office at your school. I emailed mine first. I wanted this stuff in writing. I’m visual and I wanted proof someone told me to do what I was going to do. I did need to call the registrar’s office at my school when packages started getting lost and torn up; however, the last time I did this in 2023 I never had to speak to anyone at my college because everything went smoothly.
My experience with the apostille process for getting my diploma and FBI background check legalized is detailed below in the pdf viewer. While documents following the notary chain will still be acceptable, the apostille process simplifies things by eliminating a step or two. Additionally, during my journey in 2026, I noticed that the state of Florida altered their notary services, moving from an affidavit to a Full Notarial Statement at the local level. The Department of State will no longer accept the affidavit.
