Consular legalization of documents

Consular legalization of official documentation is required for those who plan to leave their country. An emigrant must legalize all documents that will be used in another country. Such documents may include certificates issued by the Civil Registry Office, court decisions, as well as diplomas, certificates, certificates and other official papers certified by government agencies. This procedure confirms the legitimacy of the document and ensures its acceptance by foreign institutions and structures. But the procedure for obtaining consular legalization may vary for each country. Therefore, in order to avoid mistakes and for the receiving party to accept the document without problems, it is worth entrusting the procedure to knowledgeable specialists.

Features of consular legalization

Legalization of a document through the consulate of the country to which the emigrant is going includes a number of formal procedures aimed at confirming that the powers of the persons who issued the document and their signatures are genuine. It is worth noting that the consul himself is not responsible for the content of the paper. Today, there are two ways to obtain consular legalization of a document:

• certify the document in the issuing country;
• certify the document in the receiving state.

Each method includes a certain sequence of certifications. First, the document is translated. Often, the translation into the language of the host country must be done by an accredited translator. After that, both the original and its translation are certified by a notary. Then, the Ministry of Justice must certify that the notary certification is authentic. The next step is certification of the signature of the Ministry of Justice in the Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and, finally, the transfer of the document to the embassy of the country for which it is legalized. This is the long and complicated path the document goes through before receiving the final stamp. That is why, in order not to waste time and your own efforts, entrust the legalization to the experienced specialists of the UKRPEREVOD translation agency.
