For authorities abroad that accept only original paper documents. We collect the certificate in Israel, have it apostilled at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, translate it as notaries and send it to you.
Israel now issues many civil certificates as digitally signed PDF files. A digitally signed certificate can only receive a digital apostille. Some foreign authorities, for example in Romania, accept only an original paper certificate with a physical apostille stamp.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs places a physical apostille only on certificates printed at a Population and Immigration Authority office or service kiosk. Someone has to collect the original in Israel and bring it to the Ministry in person. That is the service we provide.
Regular or bilingual Hebrew-English, collected as an original.
Regular or extended extract, and name-change certificates.
Certificate of Israeli citizenship, with or without the acquisition date.
From the Rabbinate and the Rabbinical Courts.
For inheritance and family records, for relatives of the deceased.

Physical apostille and certified English translation.
We collect the original certificate directly from the issuing authority. We do not order documents by mail.

To collect documents on your behalf we need your power of attorney. Choose the route that fits you:
Israeli citizens and residents aged 18 or over with an active Israeli national digital ID (GovID) can grant us a power of attorney online through the Population and Immigration Authority. No notary and no mail.
Israeli citizens abroad can sign the power of attorney directly before the Israeli consul, without a notary.
Anyone else signs before a notary in their country of residence. The signature then needs consular authentication. We send you the exact wording.
For the embassy and notary routes we need the original signed document, sent to our office by courier.
