The apostille is the certificate introduced by the 1961 Hague Convention that makes a public document issued in Romania valid in all other member states without further legalization.
Which authority issues the apostille depends on the type of document: the Prefecture for administrative documents (e.g. civil status certificates, diplomas, criminal records), the Chamber of Notaries Public for notarial documents (including notarized translations) and the Tribunal for court documents. We identify the correct route and submit the documents on your behalf.

Apostille on the original or on the translation?
