apostille is a certificate issued (in the U.K.) by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO). It confirms that a document was signed by the person whose signature is on the document. Often this is the signature of a notary, but the FCO also has other signatures registered with it, such as those of solicitors and officials. Each document carries its own apostille and these cost £12 each. For more information see "What does legalisation or authentication of a document mean".
