DIRCO AND LEGALISATION

Burrows Law Logo

When a document is to be used in a foreign country, it may be necessary to have it Legalised or Authenticated by a Consulate or Embassy. This process is necessary for countries that are not members of the Hague/Apostille Convention. Documents are typically Legalised by the Consulate or Embassy of the country where your document will be submitted. Legalisation consists of a series of authentications starting with the Notarization of your document(s) and ending with the Embassy or Consulate’s validation of your document(s).
