Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my country needs apostille or embassy attestation?
Use the interactive checker above, or check if your destination country is a member of the Hague Convention. Hague Convention countries (127+) accept apostille only. Non-Hague countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, China, etc.) require embassy attestation. Our tool above will tell you instantly.
Can all UK documents be apostilled?
Only UK public documents can be apostilled directly. This includes documents issued by UK government departments, courts, and official bodies. Private documents usually need to be certified by a solicitor or notary first — this is the £120 option in our pricing.
How long does the process take?
Apostille: next working day delivery as standard. Embassy attestation: 5-15 working days depending on the specific embassy requirements. Use our 2-step checker above — select your document, then your country — to get a personalised quote. Contact us on 0203 916 6250 for urgent requests.

Do I need to certify my documents first?
It depends on the document type. Official UK government documents (birth, marriage certificates etc.) can often be apostilled directly at £90. Private documents, photocopies, or foreign documents usually need solicitor certification first — we include this in our £120 service.
