Hague Apostille from Latvia

How the Hague Apostille from Latvia works

The Hague Apostille (Apostille) is a certificate issued under the 1961 Hague Convention that authenticates the signature, seal and capacity of the public official who signed a document in Latvia, so it is recognized in every other Hague member state without further embassy legalization. Notary7 files your document with Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Latvia (Latvijas Republikas Ārlietu ministrija) and returns the fully apostilled original — ready to be relied on abroad.

We handle every document type commonly issued in Latvia — including notarized documents, civil records, court and academic documents, and corporate records — in English, Latvian or any language, with certified translation available when your destination country requires it. In Latvia, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is responsible for issuing Apostilles. Documents presented for an Apostille must typically be original public documents or certified true copies. It's crucial to ensure the document is properly prepared and signed by the relevant Latvian authority before submitting it for Apostille. An Apostille from Latvia ensures your document is accepted in all other Hague Convention member countries without further legalization.
