Schmidt & Schmidt offers the consular legalization of public documents from the Faroe Islands.

The Faroe Islands are an autonomous part of the Kingdom of Denmark, a member of Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents. However, the authorities of Denmark have issued a special declaration concerning the Faroe Islands so that the agreement does not apply there. Therefore, the consular legalization of public documents from the Faroe Islands by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Denmark is required.

The consular legalization authenticates the origin of the signature and the seal of a foreign public document. Responsible for the procedure is the respective embassy of the country in which the document shall be used.

The following documents can be legalized:

Extracts from the commercial register
Certificates of civil status (certificates of birth, death, marriage and divorce)
Education documents (school reports, certificates, diplomas)
Court decisions
Notarially certified copies of documents
Notarially certified translations
Further notarial documents (authorizations, last will, declarations)

Frequently asked question about Legalization and Apostille

1. What is legalization of documents and what is it needed for?

Legalization of a document is a process, which allows to legitimate the document issued in one country for its usage in another. It means, if you want to submit a document, issued in one country, to authorities in a target country, the document must primarily prove its authenticity. Legalization confirms the authority of the issuing official as well as an authenticity of his signature and seal. Legalization is needed for official non-commercial documents.

2. How can the document be legalized for another country?

There are following procedures of legalization of documents:

Consular legalization
Apostille (a simplified procedure of legalization)
Legalization of documents by the Chamber of Commerce and Industry

Consular legalization applies to countries, that have not signed the Hague Convention of 1961, which implemented a law about the procedure of apostille (a lot of European countries are member states of this convention). Legalization of documents through the Chamber of Commerce is carried out in relation to commercial documents (contracts, invoices etc).

3. Is the legalization of the document always required?

No, not always. In some cases, countries can make bi- or multilateral agreements that completely revoke legalization of documents for their recognition in the member countries. For example, a CIEC convention from 1976 or bilateral treaties between Germany and Belgium, Denmark, France, Greece, Italy, Luxemburg, Austria and Switzerland.
