Your civil partnership certificate must be either the original document signed by the registrar or an official certified copy issued by the General Register Office with a registrar’s wet ink signature.
Solicitor-certified copies are not accepted, and civil partnership certificates are not eligible for e-apostille, so the physical original must be sent for legalisation.
We make the process easy and secure:
We verify your certificate is valid for apostille.
The FCDO (UK Foreign Office) applies the official apostille.
We dispatch your legalised document securely your address.
Legalising a UK civil partnership certificate involves attaching an apostille to either the original document signed by the registrar or a certified copy issued by the General Register Office.
Accepted format:
• Original or GRO-certified copy with registrar’s wet ink signature.
Solicitor certification is not required, and civil partnership certificates are not eligible for e-apostille, so the physical document must be sent to the FCDO for legalisation.
Once apostilled, your certificate is recognised in countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention without needing further authentication.
