A trusted expert in apostille certification

Ensure your documentation is correctly certified and recognised internationally, with the support of Cardiff and Vale Notary. Contact me today to arrange appointment. 

What is apostille?

Apostille certification is a process used to verify documents to a standard which is accepted by numerous countries around the world. These countries will require a document to be ‘legalised’ which ensures that the signature, seal or stamp on the document is genuine. Once it has been verified via the Foreign and Commonwealth Development Office (FCDO) the document will receive an apostille certificate, which is an internationally recognised certificate of verification. 


At Cardiff and Vale Notary, I am able to provide a full apostille certification service for private and commercial clients throughout Cardiff and the Vale of Glamorgan. I have been a practicing Notary Public for over 15 years and am fully verified through The Notaries Society. 


By choosing me, you can ensure that your documentation is fully authenticated to the required standard.

What can be verified?

  • Court issued documents

  • Public registry documents (birth/marriage/death certificates)

  • Companies House certification

  • Tax registration documents

  • Medical certificates

  • Copies of ID documents

  • Power of attorney

  • Contracts

This is not an extensive list, so please feel free to get in touch to see if your document can be legalised.

Which countries will accept a legalised document?

There are dozens of countries around the world which will request and accept apostille certificates, from the UK and United States of America through to countries in Asia, Africa and Europe. There are far too many to list here, but all members of The Hague Apostille Convention will accept it.

Please note that documents can only be certified in their country of origin, meaning I can only carry out this service for UK-issued documents.
