legalisation of Ducth documents for use abroad

Do you require to legalise the Dutch documents for use abroad? Documents issued in one country need to be legalised to confirm their validity in another country. Legalisation confirms the authenticity of the stamps and signatures of authorised officials who issued a document. Documents can only be legalised in the country in which they were issued. That is, documents issued in the Netherlands can only be legalised in the Netherlands.

3 types of legalisation – Legalisation of documents

However, different documents require different approach of legalisation. There are 3 forms of legalisation:

Apostille

The Netherlands are subject to The Hague Apostille Convention of 1961, by which the documents valid in one country can be recognized by public authorities and other organizations of another country under the jurisdiction of the Hague convention. In other words, documents with Apostille stamp will automatically be recognized as valid in all countries of The Hague Convention.

In The Netherlands an apostille stamp can be issued in Dutch, English, French and German, Spanish and Italian. JuridConsult offers Apostille translation service as well. It should be noted that not all countries are parties to the Hague Convention. You can find the list of countries that recognize an apostille stamp here.

We also arrange Apostille stamps in Russia, Ukraine and Latvia.

Legalisation at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Netherlands

Dutch documents that are intended for use abroad can be legalised in one of the Ministries of The Netherlands (that will also depend on the type of document). In many cases, after ministerial legalisation documents should be legalised with an Apostille stamp to certify to the authenticity of the signature of the official who signed the document, the capacity in which that official acted, and when appropriate, the identity of the seal or stamp which the document bears. The Apostille does not validate the contents of the document.

Embassy Legalisation

Unlike Apostille, legalisation at the embassy / consular legalisation is used for documents intended for circulation in states that are not parties to the Hague Convention. Embassy / consular legalisation is carried out in Embassies or consulates of countries where legalised documents will be used.

Luis and his team deserve 5 starts! We found them through youtube when I was puzzled with all rules and regulations for my apostille for my birthcertificate which I needed very fast! His movies explained easily what it was, and what needed to be done. We decided to make use of his services, there are many providers but all of them request you sending your birth certificate across seas. I didnt feel comfortable with this but with Luis he accepted a photocopy and organized everything for us within 3 days! I was very amazed by the quickness and the updates from his side. The price was also the best price which I could find on the internet with the best service.

I needed to get a police clearance report (VOG) with apostille. The communication before the process started was very clear, and conducted in a friendly an efficient manner. After a very short verification that I filled the forms correctly, the process was underway. Everything proceeded as promised, and the document was delivered to me within a very reasonable period of time. I'm very thankful for the excellent service JuridConsult provided me with. I would certainly use their services in the future if needed.
