A free (non-certified) translation (done by a non-sworn translator or an automated tool) has no legal value. Only a certified translation · signed and stamped by a court-registered expert translator on the list of a Court of Appeal · is accepted by French authorities, courts, notaries, universities, and public-sector employers.
It depends on the country of issue and the procedure:
EU: generally not.
Hague Convention countries outside the EU: an apostille is required on public documents (notarial deeds, court rulings, civil status documents).
Other countries: legalisation (ministry + consulate).
Certain private documents (employment contract, payslip) do not need an apostille because they are not public documents. See apostille & legalisation.
