Do you want to use Dutch documents in Russia? For example, for a visa application, work permit, marriage, study, or business registration? Then these documents must be provided with an apostille, issued by a Dutch court. Since Russia is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, legalization through the Russian Embassy is not required.
JuridConsult guides you through the entire process — from document preparation to apostille issuance — so your documents can be used in Russia quickly, safely, and in accordance with international regulations.
