TEFL providers and educators teaching abroad must submit authenticated documents to foreign ministries of education, immigration offices, and school administrators. Missing apostilles or consular seals can delay visa approvals, hiring, onboarding, and school placement. Porchlight Group Apostille & Global Documents supports TEFL organizations, recruiters, and individual educators with fast, compliant apostille, embassy legalization, and certified translation services.
