Apostille and legalisation

The right sequence can prevent a document from making the trip twice.

We help map the translation and authentication steps for documents intended for use outside Indonesia or for foreign documents intended for use in Indonesia.

Initial assessment

One document can follow different administrative routes.

The relevant country, issuing authority, document type, language, receiving institution, and current rules all matter.

01

Apostille route

For public documents intended for a country participating in the Apostille Convention, subject to the document and authority requirements.

02

Legalisation route

For destinations outside the applicable apostille route, the process may involve ministries, a notary, and/or an embassy.

03

Translation sequence

The order of translation, notarisation, apostille, legalisation, and submission is assessed against the destination and receiving authority.

04

Foreign documents for Indonesia

We help identify the translation and administrative steps to discuss for documents issued outside Indonesia.
