Latvia is a small country located in Northern Europe, bordering the Baltic Sea. It has a population of approximately 1.9 million people and its official language is Latvian. If you are planning to use an American document in Latvia, such as a birth certificate or a diploma, you will need to have it apostilled.
An apostille is a certification that verifies the authenticity of a document and allows it to be recognized in another country. In the case of Latvia, it is a member of the Hague Convention, which means that American documents need to be apostilled in order to be accepted.

Apostille requirements for Latvia
So, what do you need to know in order to apostille an American document for use in Latvia?
Firstly, you need to ensure that the document is an original or a certified copy. This means that it must have been issued by the appropriate authority and notarized by a public notary.
Secondly, you need to contact the Secretary of State in the state where the document was issued. This is the authority responsible for apostilling documents in the United States. You can usually find their contact details on their website or by calling their office.
Once you have contacted the Secretary of State, you will need to provide them with the original or certified copy of the document, along with a completed apostille request form and the appropriate fee. The fee varies depending on the state, but it is usually around $20-$30 per document.
It is important to note that the apostille must be attached to the document itself and not to a separate cover letter or envelope. This ensures that the authenticity of the document can be easily verified by Latvian authorities.
Finally, once you have received the apostilled document from the Secretary of State, you can send it to Latvia for use. It is recommended that you also have the document translated into Latvian by a certified translator, as this may be required by Latvian authorities.
