Legalization by embassy or consulate

For documents to be valid in some countries, such as China, they must be legalized at the Embassy or Consulate. As a rule, all documents must be legalized by a notary, the state chancellery, and the Swiss Federal Chancellery before the Embassy or consulate can affix their legalizations. The countries that require this procedure usually do not belong in the Hague convention agreement (legalization by embassy or consulate).

Thanks to our network, we can provide the whole procedure from the notary to the finalized legalization by the Embassy or the Consulate. Embassy or Consulate legalization is a complex, difficult and sometimes expensive legal process. Each Embassy or Consulate has its peculiar opening hours, rules, procedures, guidelines, and fees payable, all of which you must deal with to legalize your document for use in their country. It is a tricky and sometimes costly exercise to conduct on your own.
