Notarials and Authentications
Notarial services provided by the Embassy are primarily for the benefit of U.S. citizens and legal permanent residents (i.e. 'Green Card' holders). Foreign nationals may also have documents notarized, but only if the documents will be used in the U.S. We cannot notarize documents for use in Nicaragua. These services are only are handled on appointment system. Set up an appointment.
