apostille

There has been a significant increase in the number of criminal record checks that require an apostille over recent years. As more UK citizens relocate abroad or look for employment in overseas countries there has been a greater requirement for the apostille to be used on background checks.

Organisations, companies, schools and other bodies outside the UK will often request the apostille for criminal record checks as part of their vetting criteria. If you do not have an apostille on a recently produced criminal record check then the document may not be accepted.

We can issue all UK Marriage Certificates with the apostille certificate. Our service guarantees that your marriage certificate will be issued with the correct apostille.

There are several different types of criminal record checks (often called background checks) that can be legalised by apostille. The most common are DBS and Disclosure Scotland. However, you may have an NPCC, ACPO or ACRO police certificate that needs the apostille attaching for use outside of the UK.

We can provide the apostille for all types of background checks.

There are thousands of reasons why the apostille is required. In simple terms the apostille is added to a document that will be used in another country so that it may be used officially.
