What is an SPA?

An SPA is a legal document that appoints a specific representative (also known as the agent or attorney-in-fact) assigned to act on behalf of another individual who will be called the principal.

What is an Apostille? (or previously known as authenticated, red ribbon, consularized)

  An apostille is a certification that validates the signature and seal of a public official on a document. Effective January 11, 2024, Canadian authorities are required to issue Apostilles for documents to be legally recognized. If a document has already been authenticated by the issuing country’s authorities with an Apostille, no further authentication is required by the Consular Office or Embassy, if they are a party of the signatories of the Hague Apostille Convention (such as Philippines and Canada). We offer drafting of said SPA, processing in the Ministry of Public and Business Service Delivery and Procurement – Official Documents Services, and have the document have the Apostille seal, red ribbon, consularized, authenticated, on your behalf. AJ Law LLP’s office is located in the same building as the Philippine Consulate General which makes it very convenient for our clients to find us and let us help them regarding this service. Please contact us via e-mail at info@ajlawpartners.ca or via phone at (416) 409-5991 should you have further queries. We would be pleased to serve your legal needs regarding SPA and Apostille.
