For many years the apostille was largely ignored, but with the rise of international terrorism, and especially since 9/11, many countries, including Mexico, are now requiring official documents to have an apostille.
What documents need or don't need an apostille?
You don't need an apostille for your passport or for your driver's license. You don't need it for your birth certificate if you are using that only for ID to get an FMT tourist card. You will need to have an apostille for your birth certificate for any other use in Mexico -- such as applying for IMSS health insurance. You don't need it for the letter of permission to bring into Mexico a car owned by someone else.
Just about any other document will need an apostille -- certificates of marriage, death, divorce, adoption; diplomas, college grade transcripts, professional licenses, etc.
Where to get an apostille
When you need to have an apostille for a document, ask at your county clerk's office; they will know the procedure for your state. And your notary may be able to direct you.
This website by the US State Department gives more details about an apostille including state-by-state addresses of the authority responsible for issuing apostilles. You can also select other countries to find out where to get an apostille in that country.
Canada
n Canada the procedure is different. Canada is not a signatory of the Hague Convention; thus it does not issue apostilles. You will need to take your Canadian documents to a Mexican consulate in Canada where they will issue the necessary papers for you.
