What Greenhouse Coordinates

Greenhouse reviews the document’s issuing authority, determines whether a state apostille or federal apostille is required, coordinates Virginia notarization when appropriate, and manages submission, tracking and return. For qualifying Hague documents, embassy legalization is generally not part of the standard apostille route. For broader routing help, review our apostille and document authentication services.

Common File Types

  • Birth and marriage certificates
  • Powers of attorney and affidavits
  • Diplomas, transcripts and academic records
  • FBI background checks and federal records
  • Corporate and court documents

Current Albania Processing Note

The Hague Apostille Convention has been in force for Albania since 2004. U.S. state documents are apostilled by the appropriate state authority, while qualifying U.S. federal documents are apostilled through the U.S. Department of State.

Why We Review First

The correct apostille authority depends on who issued or notarized the document. Greenhouse identifies that jurisdiction before submission.
