French Apostille โ€” Documents Issued in France, Authenticated for Global Use.

French documents apostilled by Procureur de la Rรฉpublique or Cour d'appel for Indian ROC, OCI, and global use. Kbis extracts, civil records. Translation coordinated.

How Apostille Works in France

In France, apostilles are issued by the Procureur de la Rรฉpublique at the Tribunal judiciaire for civil registry documents โ€” birth, marriage, death, and divorce certificates. Court documents are apostilled by the Cour d'appel. Notarised instruments are apostilled by the Cour d'appel in the jurisdiction of the notary who executed the act.

France's system is decentralised by document type, not by region alone. A Kbis company extract from the Infogreffe registry and a notarised Power of Attorney follow different routes. Submitting to the wrong office means rejection and a full restart.

Certified translation from French to English is required alongside apostille for most non-French destinations โ€” including Indian ROC filings and UK visa applications. GetNotary procures the French apostille and coordinates sworn translation so your file is submission-ready.
