Legalisation  

Notarised documents often require legalisation to ensure they are accepted in the country where they are to be used. London Notary clients will often be familiar with the sometimes time consuming process of legalising documents for particular countries.

Apostille – A Quicker Legalisation Solution?

The use of an Apostille is an effective way of legalising documents for a number of countries. Our London Notary Public practice can obtain an Apostille from the Foreign and Commonwealth Office legalisation office in the same business day. This provides a fast and cost effective legalisation solution to our London Notary clients and is in keeping with the same day notarisation services offered by this Notary Public in London.    

Apostille – New Countries

London Notary Public practice M D Pryke Notary Public LLP is pleased to confirm that the following countries have recently acceded to the Hague Convention of 5 October 1961, with the benefit that it removes the requirement of legalisation for foreign public documents:

1. Cape Verde on 13^th February 2010.

London Notary Public Comment

London Notary Public Matthew Pryke welcomes the news, “The introduction of more countries to the Hague Convention is great news. The legalisation process used by our London Notary practice to obtain Apostilles is very fast and efficient offering excellent value for money. This means that Notary clients receive legalised documents back more quickly without the need to meet additional legalisation criteria at any of London’s consulates and embassies. Whilst we continue to offer a complete legalisation service to all of our notary clients for every country any changes which make the process quicker is always well received by our notary public practice based in Mayfair, London and its many client’s.”
