hi everyone,
I have enquired with Elko NV county clerk as to the process of reselling US land, and he said I may need to obtain an Apostle Seal to notarize a deed for the transfer of title deed . He said this is obtainable from the Secretary of state. Has anybody heard of this Seal ?
P.S. Westan
Thanks for your email, I have been away and will get back to you soon
regards, Will

Hi Will
what your after is a “Apostille Seal” i think you can get them through the Dept of Trade & Foreign Affairs. If your in Sydney and they are only available between 9am and 1pm, i believe.
Definition – Apostille is a French word which means a certification. It is commonly used in English to refer to the legalisation of a document for international use under the terms of the 1961 Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement for Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents. A document which has been certified with a conformant apostille is accepted for legal use in all the nations that have signed the Hague Convention. It is comparable to a notarisation in Common Law.

http://www.iproperty.net.auFar out what a drama that is the ” apostille “seal.When i was in there it was really funny actually, people didnt even know how to pronounce it lettle lone what the heck it was!!I just said it the aussie way “apossill”!
A couple of things to watch with that. Firstly you can also go to the Us consulate in the MLC building(19-29 martin pl sydney ph 93739200) .But if u do go to the consulate to get it apostille sealed just make sure you phone them first to DOUBLE check that the solicitor u go to first for the notarisation is one of thier specialy approved solicitors otherwise theyll send u home!(cost $39and theyll do it while u wait 9am -11am only)
If u go to the DFAT(123 pitt st sydney 93566222 9 till 1pm) though they will accept any notary .(they charge 60 bucks per page u want apostilled or 80 for a full binding) Also the DFAT wont do it while u wait but u can pick it up the next day or theyll post it.If its urgent though u can take a next day delivery envelope with u !
Have fun with that little trip !
I am not looking forward to going back there mate,those citys are scarey places for us country boys ha haLuke
