Apostille & Authentication and Legalization of Documents

Legalization of Canadian documents for Kazakhstan
 

Hague Convention (Apostille) comes into effect in Canada on January 11, 2024.

Since that date authenticated documents include a standard certificate called an apostille. The apostille eliminates steps required to get documents accepted in countries where the convention is in effect, including the legalization by a consular office of the country of destination. This will simplify and speed up the acceptance of Canadian public documents in the more than 120 countries that have signed the Hague convention 1961. Apostille process also is more time and cost effective than standard consular legalization, as you can save your money for official embassies fees.

Despite apparent simplicity of the Apostille process there are plenty of nuances that depend on the type of the document and country where the document would be used.

Please be advised that standard consular legalization at the embassy (2 steps process) is still needed for documents that originated in Canada if they are used in the countries that do not sign Hague Treaty 1961.

Sometimes superlegalization of Apostille at the embassy is needed.

Each case is unique and requires preliminary documents observation and expertise from our side.

The preliminary expertise of your documents will help you to save time and money for couriers.

The nature of our business requires preliminary observation of copies of your documents by email. If you want us to help you, please be prepared to share the scanned copies.
