Colombian Birth Certificate
Colombia Legal & Associates If you’re doing official or government paperwork and processes (like obtaining visas, getting married, or starting a Colombian business) in a country other than the one you were born in, there’s a good chance that at some point you will need to produce your birth certificate. The trouble is there’s no way for the foreign country to be sure it’s a legitimate document if you just hand them your original; it will not be accepted unless you get an apostille and translation in Colombia for the birth certificate.
Whether you were born in the United States and are now in Colombia, or you were born in Colombia and are getting a marriage or residency in the United States, if you have to show your birth certificate it will need to be certified authentic and translated to your host country’s language. Our office can take care of this process for you.
The Colombian apostille certifies that your Colombian birth certificate is recognized by the Colombian government, and should therefore be recognized in other countries. We are connected with the more than 800 notaries across Colombia to be able to quickly apostille your documents in as little as 24 hours. We guarantee our service or your money back.
Along with our apostille service, we also offer English and Spanish translation services for your US or Colombian birth certificate.

Getting Married in Colombia is one occasion when you will need to produce a birth certificate. Colombian citizens must prove they are single when they get married to ensure no one gets married to more than one person at a time, and they do that with a birth certificate that indicates their marriage status. If you are from another country and are getting married in Colombia, you will have to prove your single status with a variety of official documents, each of which will need to be translated and receive an apostille from the country of origin.
