Apostille, document legalisation and translation services in Riga

An Apostille confirms the authenticity of a public document for use in countries applying the Hague Convention.

Yes, a photo or PDF is enough for the first assessment, although the original may be required later.

An apostille certifies the origin of a public document for use in another country. It does not confirm the content itself, but helps the receiving institution verify the signature, seal or official capacity.

Part of the preparation can start remotely after reviewing a photo or PDF of the document. If the original is required, we explain it before the next step.

The price depends on the document type, destination country requirements, translation needs, notarisation, urgency and delivery method.

A notarised translation is needed when the institution requires an officially certified translation rather than a simple text translation. We check the required certification before processing the order.

Apostille is usually used for countries that recognise the Hague Convention procedure. Legalisation may be needed when the destination country does not apply that procedure or requires another confirmation route.

You can send birth and marriage certificates, diplomas, statements, powers of attorney, company documents and other documents for review. After checking them, we clarify the correct process.

The correct order depends on the destination country and the receiving institution. We check whether apostille, translation, notary certification or legalisation should come first.

For the first review, a clear photo or PDF is usually enough. After checking the document, we will tell you whether the original is needed for final preparation.

Choose “Other document” in the form or send a document photo. We will check the issuing authority, destination country and required preparation route.
