The Hague Apostille (or simply endorsement, also in French: apostille) is a simplified method of legalizing documents in order to verify its authenticity internationally. Physically it consists of a sheet is added to documents stamped by the competent authority on a copy of the public document. It was introduced as an alternative to legalization for the Hague Convention of 1961.

In these cases there is usually also an electronic register of Apostilles (e-register), which replaces the traditional manual file endnotes for Electronic Registration contrast allows precise monitoring of endnotes actually issued.
