Frequently Asked Questions
Does France accept U.S. apostilles?
France is a Contracting Party to the Hague Apostille Convention. The U.S. competent authority depends on the document origin, and the French receiving authority determines any matter-specific requirements.
Can a French avocat or notaire send U.S.-side execution instructions?
Yes. The professional intake lane can preserve the receiving professional's instructions while The Milano Seal coordinates the appropriate U.S. execution and authentication path.
Procedural coordination only. Requirements are confirmed against document origin and the receiving authority before execution or release.
