In order to simplify the document flow between states, the countries concluded the Hague Convention, with the formation of which, an accessible system of legalization of documents with the help of an apostille – a special stamp – appeared. But there are countries that chose not to join the convention. In order to cross their border, one apostille is not enough, but a bilateral process of certification of the document is required. Only consular legalization of documents will allow to confirm the authenticity of the information specified in a particular paper in such countries. We offer to certify any notarial documentation in the Med-Help+ company. By entrusting the bureaucratic procedure to experienced specialists, you will save time, eliminate the risk of making mistakes and in a short time will have a legal document in hand for crossing the border and a comfortable stay in a foreign country.
Consular legalization: features of the procedure
Consular legalization of foreign documents is a multi-stage procedure that ensures the legitimacy of the document for a country that is not a party to the Hague Convention. After going through several stages of the process, the document, together with the seals and signatures with which it is affixed, becomes absolutely legal for most countries in Africa, Latin and North America, as well as China (except Hong Kong and Monaco), the UAE, Switzerland, Austria, etc. The operation can only be carried out in the country to which the document was issued or abroad, where it is needed.
Consular legalization in Kyiv consists of the following steps:
- legalization by the Ministry of Justice;
- legalization by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs;
- translation of the document into the official language of the country in which it will be presented;
- certification of translation by a notary;
- legalization by the consulate of another country.
