If you’re searching for fast and professional apostille services in London, iNotary provides full FCDO legalisation and notary services for personal and business documents. We specialise in helping clients get their UK documents apostilled quickly, whether for international business, marriage abroad, or study overseas.
An apostille certificate is a legal authentication that verifies the authenticity of a signature, stamp, or seal on a document. It is issued by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) in the UK. The apostille stamp makes your document legally valid for use in any country that is a member of The Hague Convention.
The apostille bears the official seal and embossed stamp of the FCDO and is signed by an authorised officer. It is required for many legal, business, or academic purposes when using UK documents abroad.
Some documents must be notarised before they can receive an apostille. If your document does not already contain an official signature (such as a court officer or registrar), a London Notary Public can verify and witness your signature. Once notarised, the document can then be submitted to the FCDO Apostille Office for legalisation.
We provide both standard and express options for apostille legalisation in London depending on your timeframe. Our experienced team handles submission and collection directly from the FCDO Milton Keynes Legalisation Office.
We submit documents daily to the FCDO Standard Counter in Milton Keynes, ensuring same-day submission once your document is notarised. This is ideal for clients needing a quick and affordable apostille in London.
Need it faster? Our same-day apostille service ensures your documents are notarised, submitted, and collected from the FCDO within 24 hours. Perfect for urgent international legalisation requests, business contracts, or overseas applications.
After notarisation, your document is physically submitted to the FCDO for legalisation. We monitor the progress and notify you as soon as it’s completed. You’ll receive digital scans and can choose delivery via post, courier, or collection from our London notary office.
If your destination country is not part of the Hague Convention, your document may also need consular legalisation at the relevant embassy in London. We handle this process for you as part of our comprehensive legalisation service in London.
At iNotary London, our team has decades of experience managing document legalisation. We liaise daily with the FCDO Legalisation Office and major embassies in London to ensure fast turnaround times. Whether you need a birth certificate apostille, company document legalisation, or academic certificate apostille, we can help.
