Apostille Service for Mexico (or its embassies/consulates) .
Children of Mexican parents born abroad can obtain dual citizenship by registering with the Mexican government, allowing them to hold both Mexican and Mexican nationality simultaneously. The process involves presenting the child's birth certificate and the birth certificates of one or both Mexican parents. One of the key steps is preparing and legalizing their U.S.-issued documents. This includes obtaining apostilles, the official certifications that validate their U.S. documents for use in Mexico (or at Mexican embassies/consulates) .
At American Notary Service Center, we specialize in providing apostille services for U.S. documents required by Mexican authorities (or their embassies/consulates) , specifically tailored to clients applying for dual citizenship.
Process:
Registration must be done at a consulate or embassy, or at the Civil Registry in Mexico.
It is a right of the child, and the Mexican government facilitates the process.
Required documents:
Original and copy of the child's birth certificate. (Apostilled)
Birth certificate of the Mexican parents, original and copy.
Valid passports of both Mexican parents or, if applicable, voter ID or consular registration.
If the Mexican father or mother was born in the United States, their Mexican birth certificate must also be presented.

The physical presence of both parents and the child is required.
