Validate your technical safety, organizational quality, and regulatory compliance with expert federal authentication. A DEKRA Certificate—whether issued for ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 14001 (Environmental), ISO 45001 (Safety), or specialized healthcare, automotive, and medical device standards (such as ISO 13485 and MDR/IVDR certifications)—is globally recognized as a premier mark of safety, reliability, and trust. When presenting your DEKRA-certified credentials to foreign governments, ministries of health, or international customs authorities, you must legally authenticate the certificate to ensure its validity is recognized abroad.
At US Apostille, we specialize in navigating the complex federal authentication process. We ensure your DEKRA Certificates are processed flawlessly, securing your Federal Apostille or Embassy Legalization in just 9 business days.
We Accept Both Digital & Physical DEKRA Certificates
In a fast-paced global market, regulatory timelines are critical. We accept both digitally-issued e-certificates and traditional paper credentials from DEKRA to keep your international projects moving.
1. Digital (PDF) Submission — Fast & Secure
How it works: If DEKRA issued your certificate as a secure, digitally-signed PDF (complete with verification codes or QR links to the DEKRA database), simply upload the original file directly to our portal.
The Benefit: No printing, no physical handling, and no expensive international shipping. We verify the digital credentials and process the document directly for Federal Apostille.
2. Physical (Hard Copy) Submission
How it works: If DEKRA provided a physical certificate on security paper with official stamps, holographic elements, or physical "wet-ink" signatures, you must mail the physical document to our office.
When it is required: This step is mandatory if the destination country (such as China, Saudi Arabia, the UAE, or Egypt) requires a physical paper original for full Embassy Legalization.

⚠️ Federal Jurisdiction Notice
Because DEKRA certificates are international trade, safety, and regulatory compliance documents, they cannot be authenticated by a local state-level Secretary of State. They require a Federal Apostille from the U.S. Department of State (Office of Authentications) in Washington, D.C.

Frequently Asked Questions
No. A standard scan or photocopy of a physical paper document is not a digital original. You must provide the original, secure PDF generated and issued electronically by your DEKRA certification body, or mail the physical paper original to our office. The U.S. Department of State will reject standard scans.
For countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention, a Federal Apostille is all you need. However, for non-Hague countries (particularly in the Middle East and parts of Asia, such as Saudi Arabia, the UAE, or Qatar), you will need a multi-step Embassy Legalization process after the Federal Apostille is complete. We manage this entire workflow end-to-end.
Most international regulatory bodies and foreign health ministries require your DEKRA Certificate to have at least 3 to 6 months of validity remaining at the time of submission. Because compliance timelines are strict, we prioritize DEKRA files to ensure your legalization is completed well before any expiration or audit window closes.
Yes. We frequently authenticate a wide range of DEKRA documents, including KEMA-KEUR Marks, Type Approval Certificates, Factory Inspection Reports, MDR Technical Documentation Assessments, and standard QMS/ISO certificates simultaneously.
