Schmidt & Schmidt offers the legalization of documents from Georgia by apostille.
Georgia has joined the Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents in the year 2007. Therefore no diplomatic authentication or legalization of documents from Georgia is required for the legal communication with another member state of the convention. The documents only need to be stamped with an "apostille" by the issuing state's authorities in order to be valid in the state of destination.
An apostille is a stamp of rectangular shape. The heading "Apostille (Convention de La Haye du 5 octobre 1961)" must be in French.
Responsible for issuing the apostille are the following institutions:
- Ministry of Education for diplomas, graduation certificates etc.
- Courts for judicial documents
- Ministry of Labor
In Abkhazia and South Ossetia the Hague Convention only applies with restrictions.
The following documents can be authenticated by apostille:
- Certificates of civil status (certificates of birth, death, marriage and divorce)
- Education documents (school reports, certificates, diplomas)
- Excerpts from the commercial register
- Judicial decisions
- Notarially certified copies of documents
- Notarially certified translations
- Further notarial documents (authorizations, last will, declarations)
- Commercial documents legalized by a state organ of registration (articles of incorporation, registration certificates, tax registrations etc.)
Requirements for the documents:
An apostille can be issued exclusively on an original document. Therefor, the latter must be in an apparent good condition, all stamps and signatures have to be clear and readable. Furthermore, it must not contain alien marking and labels.
