    Other documents are eligible for an apostille stamp, including certificates of no impediment to marriage and single status, court and probate documents, medical certificates and driving licence certificate, when issued and/or certified by a Texas official or notary public.

Texas Apostille stamps are recognised directly by the consulates and authorities of countries that are members of the Apostille Convention without the need for any further authentication.

Documents needed for submission to non-apostille countries require additional authentication by the U.S. Department of State in Washington DC and then finally attestation by the embassy of the recipient country (Some embassies have waived the requirement for authentication by the U.S. Department of State).

Federal documents, including FBI Background Checks and documents signed by U.S. Consular officials, should be submitted for apostille certification or authentication directly to the U.S. Department of State. State documents issued outside of Texas require authentication in the state of issue.
