What is apostillization of documents

Applying an apostille – this is a special type of legalization that simplifies the recognition of official documents abroad. The term "apostille" comes from the French word "apostiller", which means "to certify" or "to add a seal". This process arose within the framework of the Hague Convention of 1961, aimed at simplifying the legalization of documents for their use abroad.

The main idea of apostilization is to eliminate the need for complex and lengthy procedures for the legalization and recognition of documents in each specific country. By putting an apostille on a document, you confirm its legality and compliance with the laws of your country.

Difference between legalization and apostillization

Legalization and apostillization – two different methods of confirming the legality of documents for use abroad. These procedures differ in nature and scope, and here we will look at the key differences between them.

Essence of processes

  • Legalization is a process that involves double confirmation of a document: first at the level of the national Ministry of Justice, and then at the consular department or embassy of the country where the document will be used.
  • Apostilization of documents is a simplified mechanism for confirming the legality of a document for use in the region countries that are participants in the Hague Convention of 1961. An apostille is placed on a document by a competent authority directly in the country of production of the document.

Extent of the area of operation

  • Legalization: Legalization requires double confirmation of the document in both countries – in the country of production of the document and in the country where you plan to use it. This may cause certain difficulties and take more time.
  • Apostilization: Apostille is valid only in countries participating in the Hague Convention, which greatly simplifies the procedure. One-time confirmation of apostilles allows you to use the document in any country participating in the convention without further legalization.

Time and costs

  • Legalization: Legalization can take longer and require more expenses, as each stage requires payment of services and may require many formalities.
  • Apostillization: The apostillization process is faster and more cost-effective because it involves a one-time confirmation of the document.

Choosing apostille at the Admiral translation bureau, you choose the path of simplification and efficiency in the recognition of your documents abroad. We understand the importance of each stage of this process and are ready to ensure its high-quality and prompt execution.
