What Is Consular Legalization
Consular legalization is the procedure for confirming the authenticity of documents for use in countries that have not joined the Hague Convention. Unlike apostille, it is a longer process involving several stages of certification.
- Birth, marriage, divorce, and death certificates
- Education diplomas and certificates
- Criminal record clearance certificates
- Powers of attorney and consents
- Company incorporation documents
- Company and individual entrepreneur registry extracts
- Medical certificates and reports
- Employment records and employer references
Stages of Consular Legalization
The consular legalization procedure involves several stages: first, the document is certified by a notary, then by the Russian Ministry of Justice, followed by the Russian MFA, and finally by the consulate of the destination country.
We handle the entire process: from document translation to collecting the legalized document from the consulate. You only need to provide the original — we take care of everything else.
