The Apostille Treaty, which simplified global document authentication at the Hague Convention 62 years ago, continues to make substantial gains.
With more than 100 participating countries in 2020, there remained significant holdouts. Then Singapore ratified the treaty—and Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia.
Now, the two largest holdouts have ratified the Apostille Treaty— China and Canada. These mega-nations will begin Apostille processes on November 7, 2023, and January 11, 2024, respectively.
WCS will manage the transitions smoothly, on behalf of our client portfolio, which includes many global brands, with a concentration in pharmaceuticals and medical devices. This year, we celebrate 40 years in business—as the premier service provider for document authentication.
We look forward to a streamlined process for documents with both origination and destination in Canada and China.
