What to prepare
- Availability of the original document
- Required form of copy certification
- Confirmation that the receiving organisation accepts a copy

A LITTLE CLARITY
Your questions, answered.
?
Can notarisation be completed by video?
We confirm the procedure for your document and its intended use, then arrange video notarisation where the procedure allows it.
Who issues the apostille?
A Notarius Publicus certifies signatures, copies and certain document-related information, and issues apostilles.
Is a certified copy the same as an apostille?
Copy certification establishes that the copy matches the original. An apostille is a separate certificate relating to the document’s origin, signature, seal and the signatory’s capacity. The recipient may require one or both.
Which personal documents can be certified?
Civil status documents can include population register extracts, birth details and marriage records. Start by identifying the issuing authority and the exact document requested by the receiving organisation.
How are qualifications and education documents handled?
For diplomas, degree certificates and transcripts, the receiving institution may ask for the original, a certified copy or additional information from the school or university. These requirements should be checked before arranging an apostille.
