Do you need to obtain an apostille on your Bank Statements?

Did you have to provide an apostilled copy of your most recent bank statement?  Did you need to prove your income or source of funds?

Before you can obtain the United States Apostille on your bank statement, you need to have it signed and notarized. To notarize your bank statement, you can do one of the following:

- You can request that your bank representative (Branch manager) signs and notarizes your bank statement.
- You as an account holder can visit a local public notary and have your signature signed and notarized.

The easiest and most reliable way to notarize your bank statement is to visit your bank and ask for a notary public at their location. The majority of banks have a commissioned notary on staff who will notarize your statements free of charge.  Also, you can even ask your bank to print out a copy of your latest statement for you and they will do it at no charge. 

Besides apostille on your bank statement you may also be asked to provide apostilled copies of other documents, such as your driver’s license, a copy of your utility bill, your social security card, birth certificate, marriage certificate, passport, FBI background check apostille, etc. Before you apply for your bank statement apostille, check with the authorities that requested it, if you need an apostille on any other documents. Knowing all the requirements will help you avoid any delays or additional costs.

Obtaining an apostille can be intricate. Avoid leaving this task for inexperienced staff or non-professionals who are not fully aware of the complexities of the apostille process and the unique requirements of certain countries. Your application may be rejected, and you will lose time and money. Make a better choice!
