What is an apostille for documents?
An apostille must be affixed to documents to confirm their international validity. Depending on the circumstances, the apostille is affixed to either the original or a copy. The presence of this mark means that the documents are valid in more than 140 countries worldwide, and no further legalisation is required.
- The name of the country in which the documents were issued;
- Details of the person who signed the document;
- Details of the certification seal or stamp;
- Date and place of endorsement.
The apostille number is also indicated on the document. Without this certification, the document will not be legally valid in another country.
When an apostille is required for documents
An apostille is required for documents in the Republic of Belarus if they are to be submitted to official authorities in other countries. This applies, for example, when moving abroad, travelling to study or to work. As the documents are to be sent abroad, the apostille is affixed to them after they have been translated. This procedure applies to various types of documents. This includes:
- Birth certificates;
- School leaving certificates, diplomas and other documents certifying educational attainment;
- Certificates confirming no criminal record;
- Documents relating to marriage and divorce.
The same applies to court judgements, notarised documents and documents issued by official authorities. Both individuals and legal entities are required to have their documents certified with an apostille. However, an apostille is not required for commercial contracts, religious documents or documents drawn up during the existence of the USSR. However, such a stamp is affixed to extracts from the state register. The validity period and cost of an apostille depend on the type of document.
