Besides getting the documents legalized by the JCE do I need any additional stamps for use in USA?
To be completely legal, Yes. Documents notarized by a Dominican Notary Public for use in the United States can be authenticated by a U.S. Consular Officer after the signature from the Dominican Notary Public is authenticated first by the Attorney General’s office (Procuraduría) and then by the Dominican Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Cancillería). After these two offices have authenticated the document, you must then submit the document in person at the U.S. Consulate. A consul can authenticate the office of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ signature and seal, so that the document can be used in the United States. http://www.usemb.gov.do/Consular/ACS/notarial_services-e.
