FCDO Legalisation for Italy

Our experienced team specialises in notarising, apostilling, and legalising documents for Italy, ensuring compliance with all legal requirements. Whether for business or personal use, we make the legalisation process straightforward and efficient. 

FCDO Document Legalisation Process

  1. Apostille by the Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCDO):
    Documents destined for use in Italy must first be apostilled by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) in the UK. The Apostille serves as a certification that the document has been properly signed, sealed, or stamped by an authorised official, ensuring its legitimacy for use in Italy.

2. No Further Legalisation Required:
Since Italy is a signatory to the Hague Convention, once the Apostille has been applied, the document does not require any additional legalisation or certification. The document will be fully recognised and valid for use within Italy.

 

Fees

The fee for obtaining an Apostille from the FCDO is £40 per document (exclusive of VAT).
