Marriage Certificates

Document Legalisation

If you have married in the UK and wish to register this overseas you may be asked for an Apostille. This can be used as evidence of the marriage or for a change of name following a marriage.

When the document has been checked and the signature or stamp confirmed, the apostille is attached to the back of the document.

Legalising a marriage certificate with the apostille is ONLY £82 per certificate on our 1-2 day service.
