Latin American countries that are part of the Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents,  also known as the Hague Apostille Convention are:

Mexico

Dominican Republic

Panama

Colombia

Venezuela

Ecuador

Peru

Argentina

Since october 2010 Peru is a new member of The Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement for Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents

This international treaty will make it easier to legalize public documents for their use in Peru and abroad as well, eliminating two steps: consular authentication and legalization at Foreign Relations Ministry.

“Under this international treaty (The Hague Apostille), which has been signed by some 90 countries, the paperwork for public documents to be used in another country will be faster, recognizing its authenticity by means of an “apostille” (or seal) put onto the document that will certify it in any of the countries who have signed this treaty,” said congresswoman Gabriela Perez del Solar.
