Frequently asked questions

How does an apostille differ from a notarised translation without one?
A notarised translation makes the document readable in the language you need, but doesn't confirm it's genuine abroad. The apostille is a separate procedure for Hague Convention countries, needed on top when the document travels to another country.
Is an apostille needed for CIS countries?
No — for parties to the Minsk Convention (Russia, Armenia and Kazakhstan, for instance) no apostille is required: a notarised translation is enough.
Can a power of attorney be translated and legalised for use abroad?
Yes, that's a separate service: drafting or translating the power of attorney into the language you need, plus an apostille or consular legalisation for the destination country.
How long does translation and notarisation take?
A standard translation with notarisation takes from 1 day. If the document has to be requested from a government body (a criminal record certificate, say), the timing is noticeably longer, as it depends on that body rather than on the translator.
