Japanese birth certificates and Koseki Tohon (Family Registry) are essential documents required for various legal purposes abroad, including visa applications, citizenship procedures, and international adoption processes. To be accepted overseas, these documents must be authenticated with an Apostille.

Why You Might Need Apostille Authentication:
- Visa and Immigration: If you’re applying for citizenship or a long-term visa in another country, you may need to present an Apostille-authenticated birth certificate or Koseki Tohon to prove your identity and family relationships.
- International Adoption: When adopting a child from Japan, adoptive parents may need an Apostille on the child’s birth certificate or Koseki Tohon for the adoption to be recognized in their home country.
- Legal Name Changes: Some legal procedures, like changing a name in foreign documents, require a verified birth certificate or family registry, authenticated with an Apostille.
