certificate

Explanation:
I have encountered this term before, in a French document relating to Spanish equivalence requirements according to the Hague Convention, and was advised to use 'certificate'.

I agree that keeping 'apostille' is a good choice, too, but depending on your translation reader/purpose it might need explaining.

Apostille (Convention de La Haye du 5 octobre 1961)

Explanation:
Personally, I think the whole term should remain in original. I've translated countless Court documents (issued by the different Ministries in my country) and I have always used the original tittle - " Apostille (Convention de La Haye du 5 octobre 1961) ".
Besides, that term has remained in French on the documents in the official language of my country (Macedonian) - therefore, no need for further translation.
