Apostille and legalization

All documents have to be legalized for use abroad. The Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents unites 115 countries of the world and allows the simplified legalization procedure in the form of apostilling. Documents certified with an apostille gain legal force in all Convention member states after certified translation.

Today there are 115 countries that have ratified the Convention. Schmidt & Schmidt offers help with legalization and apostilling of official documents, that might be needed in courts or for notaries.
