Hague Members

Members of the Hague Convention issue and accept apostilles to simplify the legalisation and verification of documents between states. When a competent authority within a country issues the apostille no further authentication of the document should be required or requested. We do occasionally here that some organisations or companies within a state request further embassy attestation services but this is not required. In the event that you are asked to provide more than an apostille on a document that is to be used in a member country we recommend that you direct them to this webpage of the HCCH documentation.

Not Hague Members

Countries that are not members to the Hague Convention may request you attest your document at an embassy in the UK.  If you require embassy attestation for any documents that are not detailed in the list above please visit the embassy attestation pages or contact the apostille service. We would be happy to provide you with the current processing procedure and service times for your documents.

about apostille service

Do you need embassy attestation?

Check the list of countries below to see if you need embassy attestation after the apositlle.

Any document being submitted to a fellow member of the Hague Convention should only need the apostille certificate.

Any country that has not signed the Hague Convention section relating to apostille legalisation may also request that your document is attested by the embassy.

We can legalise many documents with the embassies in London to save you time and money.
