An Authorization Letter For Apostille becomes necessary when an individual or organization needs to have documents authenticated through the apostille process in the Philippines but cannot personally handle the procedure. Since the Philippines' accession to the Apostille Convention in 2019, this document has become a crucial tool for delegating authority in international document authentication. The letter must be carefully drafted to include all essential elements required by Philippine law, including the identities of both the grantor and the authorized representative, specific powers being granted, and details of the documents requiring apostille. It needs to be notarized to ensure its validity and must comply with both domestic legal requirements and international standards under the Apostille Convention. This type of authorization is commonly used for academic credentials, business documents, personal documents, and legal papers that need to be recognized in other Apostille Convention member countries.
