Degree Certificate

Original or Copy?

We can legalise either the original document or make a photocopy and attach the apostille to the copy. Many countries will accept a certified copy of your document. However, we do recommend you check if a copy will be accepted by the organisation asking you to get your document legalised. Some countries are now requesting original documents have the apostille.

Please indicate on the order form if you would like us to ‘APOSTILLE THE ORIGINAL’ or ‘APOSTILLE A COPY’ of the certificate.

If you want us to legalise a copy we will still need to see the original degree certificate. Alternatively we can verify the copy by contacting the issuing university to verify the copy is accurate. This will incur a verification fee which can be purchased here in addition to the apostille fee.

The verification of degree certificates can take between 1 to 4 weeks depending on the university that issued the document. Due to the increased costs and administration we incur the fee for this service is £116 per document.

If you need your degree certificate legalised quickly we recommend you post the original certificate to our office with the order form.

If the university do not respond to our enquiry we may still need to request the original documents are sent to us by post. Unfortunately some universities can take several weeks to respond to enquiries.
