Notaries
Notarial services are available from the Embassy/Consulate's consular section to U.S. citizens or foreign nationals having business with U.S. The cost for notarial services is $30 for the first and $20 for each additional consular signature. Along with your documents, you will need to bring proof of identity. Notarial services are available 13:30 to 16:30, (for General Consulate in Istanbul 13:30-15:00) Monday through Thursday.
The American Embassy in Ankara and the Consulates in Istanbul and Adana are not permitted to perform authentications of official Turkish documents. To obtain an authentication, you may go to the Governor’s office and receive an apostille certificate. You must have your document translated into English by a sworn translator and notarized by the Turkish notary before taking them for apostille certification. Apostille certificates (documents which have the special Hague Legalization Certificate) are acceptable in all countries where the Hague Treaty is in force (including Turkey and the United States) without need for authentication by any other authority.
