What is an Apostille?
An Apostille is an official certificate issued by a designated authority that authenticates the origin of a public document. Established under the Hague Convention of 1961, it eliminates the need for double certification (legalization by both the originating country and the embassy of the destination country).
Once an apostille is attached to your Swedish document, it is automatically recognized as valid in all other member countries of the Hague Apostille Convention.

Who Issues an Apostille in Sweden?
In Sweden, the authority to issue an apostille is strictly held by Notaries Public (Notarius Publicus). Swedish government agencies, such as the Ministry for Foreign Affairs (Utrikesdepartementet), no longer issue apostilles directly.
Our team works directly with appointed Notaries Public across Sweden to expedite the certification of your documents, ensuring they meet all legal criteria before submission.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which countries accept an apostille from Sweden?
An apostille is valid in any country that is a signatory to the Hague Apostille Convention. If your destination country is not a member, your documents will require a multi-step legalization process involving the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs and the destination country's embassy.
Do my documents need to be translated?
Many international authorities require a certified translation alongside the apostilled document. We provide certified translation services into English, Spanish, French, German, and multiple other languages to accompany your legalization.
Can an digital document receive an apostille?
An apostille requires an original signature or an official physical stamp from an authorized Swedish official. Digital documents must usually be printed and officially certified by a competent authority or Notary Public before an apostille can be issued.
