Apostille services for obtaining dual citizenship in El Salvador (or its embassies/consulates). For children of Salvadoran citizens with children born in the United States.
Apostille Service and Fast and Reliable Assistance for El Salvador ( or its embassies/consulates).
If you are a Salvadoran citizen with children who are U.S. citizens and you wish to apply for dual citizenship for your children in El Salvador or at the Salvadoran Embassy or Consulate in the United States, one of the key steps in the process is to prepare and legalize your U.S.-issued documents. This includes obtaining apostilles , the official certifications that validate your U.S. documents for use in El Salvador (or its embassies/consulates).
At American Notary Service Center , we specialize in providing apostille services for U.S. documents required by the authorities of El Salvador (or their embassies/consulates) , specifically tailored to clients applying for dual citizenship.
Key aspects of dual nationality (USA-El Salvador):
Eligibility: Children of a Salvadoran father or mother born in the U.S. may obtain Salvadoran nationality.
Benefits: Citizens with dual nationality can enter El Salvador without paying entry taxes and access public health services.
Procedure: You will need the child's birth certificate (if issued abroad), identity documents (national ID/passport), and birth certificates of the parents. The procedure is carried out at the nearest Salvadoran consulate.
Travel Requirements: When traveling between both countries, citizens must use their U.S. passport to enter/exit the U.S. and their Salvadoran passport to enter/exit El Salvador.
Naturalization: Dual nationality does not require choosing one nationality over the other, according to Article 91 of the Salvadoran Constitution.
For more information or to begin the process, you can contact the virtual consulate or the Salvadoran consulates in the U.S. Process and requirements.
Contact: Visit the nearest Salvadoran consulate to request information and schedule an appointment. Some consulates offer naturalization services for children born abroad.
Documentation: You must present the original birth certificate of the minor (Apostilled) and the Unique Identity Document (DUI) or valid Salvadoran passport of one of the parents.
Procedure: The consulate will process the information to register the birth in the records of El Salvador.
The birth certificate must be apostilled by the appropriate federal or state authority before being accepted by the embassy or consulate.

Certified translation (if necessary)
In addition to the apostille, the Salvadoran government may require Spanish translations of each document. These translations must match the legalized (apostilled) documents and are usually submitted along with the originals at the consular appointment.
We can put you in touch with certified Spanish translators experienced in consular requirements, or offer you a complete package with apostilles and translations.
