How to apostille a document issued in Guam?


If your document is issued in Guam and will be used abroad, an Apostille is required. The Apostille may be affixed to documents bearing the official signature and seal of a currently commissioned Guam notary public, probate judge, or the Guam officials, registrars, or clerks.

In Guam, your original document should be signed and stamped by a local notary public if it’s non-recordable, or certified by the public official (the county/court clerk or registrar) if it’s recordable. Then the Apostille is processed by the Department of Administration.
