Canada became a member of the Apostille (Hague) Convention on January 11, 2024. The Convention allows to authenticate documents by attaching to it a certificate, called, an apostille.
The apostille eliminates the steps required to get documents accepted in the foreign countries where the convention is in effect, including the 1) legalization by a consular office of the country of destination, and the 2) authentication of documents at the Canadian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The apostille simplifies the acceptance of Canadian documents in the more than 120 countries that have signed the convention.
Thus, if an Ontario-based document will be used overseas, in the country that is a member of the Apostille Convention, you need to get an apostille-certification of the document, in order to simplify its acceptance overseas.
