Background-check assistance
Choose the correct report: FBI or FDLE
An FBI Identity History Summary is a federal document and follows the federal apostille route. An FDLE criminal-history record is a Florida document and follows the Florida apostille route.
Ask the receiving authority in Ecuador which report it requires. PRONTO can help explain fingerprinting and report-obtaining options, then coordinate the appropriate apostille.
Send the complete report or request details first. PRONTO identifies whether the document follows a state or federal apostille route before confirming the order.
Powers of attorney
Confirm the legal wording in Ecuador before signing.
Powers of attorney for Ecuador can vary by transaction. A bank authorization, property matter, inheritance, company act or personal representation may require different powers and identifying information. Confirm the requested text in Ecuador before the signer appears before the U.S. notary.
An apostille does not approve legal content. It authenticates an eligible signature or public document. The receiving party in Ecuador controls whether the POA grants the correct authority.

Apostille, translation and acceptance in Ecuador
Ecuador is a party to the Apostille Convention. Eligible U.S. documents normally use an apostille for use in Ecuador, while the receiving authority decides whether an original, certified copy or Spanish translation is also required.
Tell us the receiving authority. A civil registry, court, bank, university, notary or immigration office may ask for a different document version or translation.
Frequently asked questions
U.S. document apostilles for Ecuador
What U.S. documents can PRONTO apostille for use in Ecuador?
PRONTO assists with eligible U.S. vital records, academic documents, powers of attorney, court and business records, notarized documents and agency-issued background checks. The issuing authority determines the apostille route.
Can PRONTO help with a power of attorney for Ecuador?
Yes. The receiving attorney, notary, bank, registry or institution in Ecuador should confirm the legal wording before the document is signed in the United States. PRONTO then coordinates the applicable notarization, apostille and translation services.
Do I mail my document before PRONTO reviews it?
No. Send a clear image through WhatsApp first. If a physical original or certified copy is required, PRONTO will provide mailing instructions after review.
Can PRONTO return the completed document to Ecuador?
Yes. International tracked return is available to a confirmed address in Ecuador, subject to the carrier and destination details confirmed with the order.
Does an apostille confirm the legal content of my document?
No. An apostille authenticates the eligible public-official or notary signature. The receiving authority decides whether the document’s content, format and translation satisfy its requirements.
How are price and timing confirmed?
Price and timing depend on the issuing state or federal agency, document preparation, destination, number of documents, translation needs and return shipping. PRONTO confirms the current estimate after review.
