Do you need to use Dutch documents in Japan? For example for work, study, marriage or family-related matters? In most cases, you will need an apostille. JuridConsult assists you in legalising documents for Japan, ensuring they are immediately legally valid there without additional formalities.
We ensure that original documents such as diplomas, birth certificates, or statements are carefully issued with an official apostille stamp for use in Japan.
Japan is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. This means that it is not necessary to legalise documents through the Japanese embassy. An apostille issued by a Dutch court is sufficient to make your document legally valid in Japan.
If you are unsure whether you need an apostille or another form of legalisation, you will find clear information on our page about document legalisation.
At JuridConsult we can usually provide an apostille for your document within one working day. You do not need to research anything yourself or visit multiple authorities – we take care of the entire process for you. The costs are:
€26.00 per document
JC handling fee: €52.00 + 21% VAT
Subtotal: €88.92
Please note: the court only accepts original documents. Copies or scans cannot be legalised.
Although Japanese authorities often accept English-language documents, we can also arrange the apostille in other languages depending on your needs. Available language options include:
If you require a translation in addition to the apostille, we are happy to provide a sworn translation into English or Japanese that is recognised internationally.





Whether for Japan, Europe or other regions – JuridConsult guides you through every step of the legalisation process. For example, if you also need an apostille for the United Kingdom, we can arrange it for you in one go.
