Our Services

Apostille
The legal recognition and validity of documents for countries that are parties to the Hague Convention are confirmed by an apostille. An apostille may be affixed to the original document, a notarized copy, or a translation. It is very important to clarify the submission requirements in advance.

If you need to present documents to the government authorities of another country, they must be not only professionally translated but also legalized. Under the 1961 Hague Convention, the simplified form of legalization is a special stamp — the apostille. This stamp makes a document legally valid in other countries.

The following documents may be apostilled:
- diplomas and transcripts;
- passports;
- educational documents (school report cards, school certificates, transfer certificates, diplomas, archival records from educational institutions);
- diplomas;
- certificates;
- documents issued by civil registry offices (birth, death, marriage certificates, name change certificates, certificates of marital capacity);
- other notarized or legal documents and many others.
An apostille may be affixed to originals or notarized copies. Afterwards, the documents are translated into the required language.

Cost: starting from 25,000 KZT (including state fee for apostille, translation into a foreign language, notarization, power of attorney, and proper document preparation for submission to government agencies).
Processing time: 5 business days.
Urgent apostille: 1 day.
Consular Legalization
If documents are prepared for countries that are not parties to the Hague Convention, the simplified apostille method is not applicable. In these cases, documents undergo a more complex and lengthy procedure — consular legalization. This process includes legalization at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan followed by certification at the embassy of the destination country, such as the UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Canada, Taiwan, Egypt, and Iraq.

The following documents may require consular legalization:
- diplomas and transcripts;
- passports;
- educational documents (school report cards, school certificates, transfer certificates, diplomas, archival records from educational institutions);
- diplomas and transcripts;
- police clearance certificates;
- documents issued by civil registry offices (birth, death, marriage certificates, name change certificates, certificates of marital capacity);
- pension agreements;
- legal documents of LLPs (charters, incorporation documents for opening companies abroad);
- parental consents for marriage abroad;
- parental consents for minor children to travel abroad;
- medical certificates;
- other notarized or legal documents.
Cost: starting from 80,000 KZT (including consular fees of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Kazakhstan, consular fees of the embassy, translation into a foreign language (Arabic, English), notarization, power of attorney, and proper document preparation for submission to the MFA and embassies).
Delivery: completed documents are delivered across Kazakhstan via CDEK. For international delivery, DHL services are paid separately by the client.
Processing time: 7–8 business days.

Document retrieval is the process of obtaining official documents from government authorities of the Republic of Kazakhstan, such as archives, civil registry offices, and courts.

Legalization Apostille Services assists in retrieving the following documents:
- Birth certificate

- persons whose civil status is confirmed by documents;
- relatives of deceased persons;
- parents (guardians) or custody authorities for children under 18;
- other persons holding a notarized power of attorney from those entitled to receive such documents.
Processing time: usually 10 to 15 business days.

You can place an order online from anywhere in the world. Retrieval and apostille can be done without your personal presence and without originals (no power of attorney required).

Cost: starting from 50,000 KZT (including state fee for document retrieval, apostille, translation into a foreign language, notarization, power of attorney, and proper document preparation for submission to the civil registry office).
Processing time: 10–15 business days.

Important!
If a document raises doubts or requires additional verification, a request is sent to the issuing authority.

Please note: in such cases, the processing period may be extended.
