Recently, our team was asked a question: “I have a U.S. birth certificate with an apostille. Can the Consulate of Ukraine in San Francisco confirm if it’s valid for use in Ukraine?”

We wanna share the answer from our specialists:

13.11.2025 19:44:12 From a legal perspective, yes, the Consulate of Ukraine in San Francisco can assist in confirming the validity of your U.S. birth certificate with an apostille for use in Ukraine. Since Ukraine is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, an apostilled U.S. birth certificate is generally recognized there without further legalization. However, the consulate may review the document to ensure it meets specific Ukrainian requirements, such as proper issuance and relevance to your purpose (e.g., citizenship, marriage). It is advisable to contact them directly with your document for verification.
