(a) If a notarial act is performed under authority and in
the jurisdiction of a foreign state or constituent unit of the
foreign state or is performed under the authority of a
multinational or international governmental organization, the
act has the same effect under the law of this state as if
performed by a notarial officer of this state.
(b) If the title of office and indication of authority to
perform notarial acts in a foreign state appears in a digest of
foreign law or in a list customarily used as a source for that
information, the authority of an officer with that title to
perform notarial acts is conclusively established.
(c) The signature and official stamp of an individual
holding an office described in subsection (b) of this section
are prima facie evidence that the signature is genuine and the
individual holds the designated title.
(d) An apostille in the form prescribed by the Hague
Convention of October 5, 1961, and issued by a foreign state
party to the Convention conclusively establishes that the
signature of the notarial officer is genuine and that the
officer holds the indicated office.
(e) A consular authentication issued by an individual
designated by the United States Department of State as a
notarizing officer for performing notarial acts overseas and
attached to the record with respect to which the notarial act is
performed conclusively establishes that the signature of the
notarial officer is genuine and that the officer holds the
indicated office.
