How to authenticate a Marriage Record Issued by a Federal Authority for use in Nigeria: the exact route, translation requirements, and full-service handling from West Palm Beach.
An apostille is not accepted. Your Federal Marriage Record must be authenticated by the U.S. Department of State, then legalized at the Nigeria embassy.
