To be accepted for legalisation, your document must be an original or an official registrar copy. Photocopies and scans are not valid for apostille. If you are unsure whether your document meets the requirements, contact us and we’ll confirm before you send it.
If your document is missing, damaged, or unavailable, we can arrange a certified replacement from the General Register Office (GRO) or your local register office. Once obtained, we’ll manage the entire apostille process for you — making it quick and hassle-free.
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 marriage certificate involves attaching an apostille — an official certificate that confirms the document’s authenticity for use abroad.
Your UK marriage certificate can be legalised in its original form or as a certified copy issued by the General Register Office (GRO) or a local register office. The apostille is attached to the document by the FCDO.
There are two types of apostille:
• Paper-based — you must send your physical document by post or deliver it in person.
• E-apostille — UK marriage certificates issued by the GRO are not eligible for e-apostille.
We help you obtain the apostille through the FCDO, ensuring your marriage certificate is legally recognised abroad.
