Frequently asked questions
Is an apostille enough for documents used in the United Kingdom?
That depends on the current status of the United Kingdom under the Hague Apostille Convention and on the country where your document was issued. We check this for your specific document and tell you the exact route before you commit.
Into which language should documents for the United Kingdom be translated?
Usually into the official language of the United Kingdom or a language its authorities accept, often English. We confirm the requirement with you in advance.
