Hague Apostille from Vietnam

How the Hague Apostille from Vietnam works

The Hague Apostille (Chứng nhận lãnh sự) 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 Vietnam, so it is recognized in every other Hague member state without further embassy legalization. Notary7 files your document with Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam (Bộ Ngoại giao Việt Nam) and returns the fully apostilled original — ready to be relied on abroad.

We handle every document type commonly issued in Vietnam — including notarized documents, civil records, court and academic documents, and corporate records — in English, Vietnamese or any language, with certified translation available when your destination country requires it. Vietnam officially joined the Hague Apostille Convention on February 10, 2021. This means documents issued in Vietnam which require use in other Hague member countries no longer need embassy legalization but can be apostilled by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, documents intended for use in non-Hague member countries will still require consular legalization. It's crucial to verify the specific requirements of the destination country, as some may have additional formalities.

In Vietnam, the Hague Apostille is issued by Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam (Bộ Ngoại giao Việt Nam). Notary7 files your document directly with the competent authority and returns the apostilled original — accepted by ministries, courts, banks, registries and embassies across every Hague Convention member state.
