Apostille UK Documents for Vietnam
Fast, reliable apostille services for UK documents to be used in Vietnam. From 11 September 2026 Vietnam accepts the apostille, so Vietnamese Embassy attestation is no longer required.
Why Apostille Documents for Vietnam
If you need to use a UK document in Vietnam for a work permit, teaching role or business setup, it will need to be legalised in the UK first. The most commonly apostilled UK documents for Vietnam are degree certificates, TEFL qualifications, DBS criminal record checks and other academic documents used in support of work permits and education-sector employment.
Vietnam joined the Hague Apostille Convention on 11 September 2026. The FCDO apostille is now the only legalisation your UK document needs. Documents no longer have to be sent to the Vietnamese Embassy in London, which makes the process both faster and cheaper. Our team can advise on the apostille process for Vietnam.
