Legal documents for use in the Bahamas must be legalized either by an apostille from the Bahamas embassy or consulate, or issued with an apostille by the Secretary of State (in the case of countries that are signatories to the Hague Document Convention).

In 1973, the Bahamas acceded to the Hague Convention, which eliminates the need to legalize official documents of German citizens. Consequently, German citizens do not need diplomatic certification or consular legalization of documents to establish legal relations with other States parties to the Convention. In order for such documents to be recognized as valid in the Bahamas, they need only be certified by an apostille certificate bearing the "apostille" stamp issued by the authorities of the issuing State.

Such documents typically include powers of attorney, certificates of incorporation, statutes, and marriage and birth certificates. These documents must be accompanied by an apostille issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The apostille confirms the signature of the attorney or notary and must be signed by an official of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Samples of signatures of designated officials should be on file. For countries that have signed the Hague Convention, an apostille issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is sufficient. Otherwise, the document must be legalized at the embassy.
