Legalisation route

Apostille, EU recognition or consular legalisation?

Poland — EU member state: civil-status documents often travel without an Apostille (Regulation 1191/2016); for this document type we confirm the right route in the quote.

Your route

Apostille (Hague Convention 1961)

125 contracting parties accept Apostille as legalisation. Fastest route for most non-EU countries.

  1. Sworn translation of your document
  2. Apostille by the competent authority in the issuing country
  3. Document valid for use in the destination country

Other routes

Direct EU recognition

Within the EU, direct recognition applies (Brussels IIa/IIb, Regulation 1191/2016) — no Apostille or legalisation required.

Consular legalisation

For non-Hague countries (e.g. Eritrea, Iran, Vietnam, Saudi Arabia, Iraq), consular legalisation via the Foreign Office and the destination embassy.

Do I need a certified translation of my diploma?
For recognition by UK ENIC, enrolment at an overseas university or applications to international employers, a certified translation is typically required.
Which documents accompany a qualification recognition?
Typically the diploma, the transcript (diploma supplement) and sometimes a statement of educational background. We translate the full set.
Do I need an Apostille for my diploma abroad?
For Hague contracting parties, Apostille is required; within the EU, direct recognition often applies; for non-Hague countries, consular legalisation.
How long does diploma translation take?
Turnaround depends on document count, language pair and certification requirements. We confirm a realistic deadline in the quote.
What is the difference between translation and qualification recognition?
UK ENIC assesses the qualification's value; we deliver the certified translation of the text. Both may be required. We supply the translation only.
