Certification of documents with the seal of a foreign institution for use in Ukraine

Documents issued or certified by foreign institutions, in particular in the UK, require a special legalisation procedure before being submitted to Ukrainian governmental or commercial authorities. This usually includes contracts, powers of attorney, certificates, and references issued by UK notaries, educational institutions, hospitals, courts, or companies. To be legally valid in Ukraine, these documents need to be properly certified and legalised.

Legal marketplace Consultant provides full support for such a procedure - from document verification to its recognition in the Ukrainian jurisdiction.

Certify a foreign document for submission in Ukraine

Certifying documents with the seal of a foreign institution is the first step towards their legal use in Ukraine. Lawyers determine the most efficient way to prepare documents for Ukrainian authorities.

Lawyers' actions to ensure the certification of a document:

analysing the type of document and its origin;
verification of compliance of the document with the requirements of Ukraine;
translation into Ukrainian by a certified translator;
notarisation of the translation by a notary in the UK.

As a result, the client will receive a certified document prepared for further legalisation or apostillisation.

Apostille on documents with British stamps for use in Ukraine

Documents bearing the stamps of British institutions require an apostille if they are to be submitted to Ukraine in accordance with the Hague Convention. This applies to both personal and commercial documents.

Actions of lawyers in order to organise the apostillation of a document:

checking whether the document is subject to apostille at the FCDO;
preparation of documents for submission to the UK Legalisation Office;
organising the submission and receipt of the apostille;
informing the client about the validity and scope of the apostille.

As a result, the client will receive a document with an apostille, which is recognised in Ukraine without additional consular legalisation.

notarisation of the translation in the UK;
