Unlike most personal documents, degree certificates must be certified by a UK solicitor or notary public before they can be apostilled. This can be done on the original document or a photocopy if you don’t want your original marked. If you prefer, we can arrange solicitor certification on your behalf as part of our service.
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 degree certificate involves solicitor or notary certification followed by the apostille process.
Accepted formats:
• Original document, or
• A certified photocopy if you prefer not to mark the original.
After certification, the document is sent to the FCDO for the apostille. Degree certificates are eligible for e-apostille, meaning you can also submit digitally signed PDFs certified by a UK solicitor or notary.
