How Taiwanese embassy / consulate legalization works
Embassy legalization (領事證明 / 大使館認證) is the process required when a document must be used in a country that is not part of the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention or when the Taiwanese authorities specifically require consular attestation. The document is first notarized, then authenticated by the issuing country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and finally legalized at the Taiwanese embassy or consulate through Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Taiwan (中華民國外交部).
Notary7 manages the full chain end-to-end — notarial acts, MoFA authentication, Taiwanese consular legalization, sworn translation and international courier — issued digitally where accepted or with original wet-ink signatures and seals where required. For documents issued outside of Taiwan to be legally recognized within Taiwan, they must undergo embassy/consulate legalization. This process typically involves notarization in the issuing country, followed by authentication by the relevant state or federal authority (if applicable, such as an apostille or state certification). The final step is attestation by the Taiwanese embassy or consulate located in the country where the document was issued. Common documents requiring this chain include powers of attorney, academic records, and corporate documents for business activities in Taiwan. Once attested, these documents are accepted by various governmental and private institutions across Taiwan.
