An apostille is an official certificate issued by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) that confirms the authenticity of a document. It verifies the signature, seal, or stamp of the person or authority who signed the document, so it can be legally recognised in any country that is part of the Hague Apostille Convention.
It depends on the type of document. In some cases, the original must be submitted, while in others a certified copy or scanned version is sufficient.
Don’t worry, we’ll guide you through the exact requirements for your case and let you know whether the original is needed.
This depends on the service you choose.
For e-services (such as e-apostille or e-certification), your completed documents are sent securely by email.
For physical documents, we offer a range of tracked delivery options. Within the UK, this includes Royal Mail Special Delivery. For international clients, we use trusted partners such as DHL to ensure safe and reliable delivery worldwide.
For apostilles, business and corporate documents are handled exactly the same way as personal documents – there’s no difference in process, fee, or requirements. With embassy attestations, however, some embassies charge higher fees for commercial or corporate documents.
Aside from that, the process from our side remains the same: you place your order online, send us the documents, and we handle the rest.
Our Express service is the fastest option, with apostille legalisation completed in just 1–2 working days from the moment your documents reach our office. We also offer a standard service, though most clients choose Express for speed and convenience.
Please note that if your document requires solicitor certification, this may add an extra 1–2 working days.

The FCDO and embassies are closed at weekends, so document submissions can only take place Monday to Friday. However, you can still place an order through our website at any time, and you’re welcome to send your documents to us over the weekend so they’re ready to be processed first thing on Monday.
We also provide limited customer support on weekend mornings if you’d like to discuss an urgent case or if weekends are the only time you’re available.
