Obtain & Apostille Your CPIC Certificate for Use in Paraguay
Step 1: Submit Your Request Online
Start by filling out our Quote Request Form. Be sure to include:
- A request for a Canadian Police Clearance Certificate.
- The country of intended use (Paraguay).
- Any additional documents that may require authentication (e.g., academic or professional certifications).
This ensures that you receive the correct instructions based on Paraguay’s document requirements.
Step 2: Complete the CPIC Check
After submitting your request, you’ll receive instructions and cost estimates. The CPIC check can be completed based on:
- Name and Date of Birth Check: This is the most common and quickest method.
- Fingerprint-Based Check: Some Paraguayan applications may require a fingerprint-based clearance. We can guide you through this process if needed.
Step 3: Processing and Notarization
Once your CPIC certificate is issued, it must be notarized by a Canadian notary public to confirm its authenticity. A professional document service will handle this step for you, ensuring compliance with Paraguayan requirements.
Step 4: Apostille for Use in Paraguay
As of January 11, 2024, Canada has officially joined the Hague Apostille Convention, making the process of validating documents for Paraguay much easier. Instead of embassy legalization, your CPIC certificate will now go through the apostille process:
- Authentication: The notarized CPIC certificate is authenticated by a designated Canadian authority either Global affairs Canada or a designated provincial authority.
- Apostille Certification: The authenticated document receives an apostille, which certifies its validity for use in Paraguay without the need for embassy legalization.
This streamlined process saves time and eliminates the need for additional steps at the Paraguayan Embassy in Canada.
Step 5: Secure Delivery of Your Certified CPIC Certificate
After the apostille process is complete, your CPIC certificate will be securely delivered to your location, either in Paraguay or elsewhere, for immediate use.
