Unaccompanied Minors: Travelling to and From Mexico

February 17, 2014 By Atlanta Apostille

As of last November, changes in Immigration Law in Mexico have created new requirements for minors (ages 17 and under) travelling to and from Mexico without their parents or legal guardian. The minors must submit their immigration documents, as well as a notarized letter from the parent permitting the child to travel without them. This letter must be certified with an apostille stamp and be translated into Spanish.

Failing to comply with these regulations can lead to the passenger(s) being prohibited from boarding and/or a fine.

Apostille (Apostilla), Visas, and Relocating to Mexico

October 18, 2013 By Atlanta Apostille

If you are relocating to Mexico, you will have to obtain a visa, which means that you will have to submit a lot of paperwork. Each visa is company and position specific, and be sure to apply as far in advance as possible, since it can take months to apply for a visa.

However, having your visa approved is not the end of the paperwork. Whether you need to renew your visa, rent a house, or buy a car, you will be asked to produce various documents, such as your birth certificate, marriage certificate, and passport. For this reason, it would be a good idea to have all of your official documents certified with an apostille (apostilla), translated, and notarized before you leave the country. This will ensure that your documents will be accepted by the Mexican embassy. Fortunately, Atlanta Apostille can obtain the necessary certification and notarization for your documents and have them back to you within 24 hours, so you do not have to delay your move.

August 26, 2013 By Atlanta Apostille

Many recent college graduates are finding employment overseas teaching English. There is a strong demand, particularly among Asian countries, for English-speaking foreigners to teach English to students wanting to sharpen their English-language skills. Many companies and families hire students on a contract basis. However, the screening process can be lengthy involving various agencies of the applicant’s home and host countries.

If you are teaching English abroad, after you have obtained your background check from the Department of Justice, you will need to have it notarized. Then, you will need an apostille for both your background check and your diploma.
