Document background
The Apostille Single Status Affidavit is a crucial document for Malaysians or residents of Malaysia who need to prove their unmarried status in foreign jurisdictions. This document became particularly significant after Malaysia's accession to the Hague Apostille Convention in 2019, which streamlined the process of international document authentication. The affidavit contains personal information, a formal declaration of single status, and must be properly executed before authorized officials in Malaysia. It's commonly required for international marriages, foreign visa applications, overseas employment, or other legal proceedings where proof of single status is mandatory. The document must follow specific formatting requirements to be eligible for apostille certification and typically requires supporting documentation to verify the declared information.
