Consular & embassy legalization in Kaunas
If a document will be used in a country that is not party to the Hague Apostille Convention, it must go through consular legalization. It is a multi-step procedure, and each embassy applies its own requirements. We organise the whole chain, from the first stamp to the last.
For clients in Kaunas we handle consular legalization remotely: we collect your documents by post or courier, complete every step at the ministry and the embassy, and send the legalized documents back.
Kaunas has many international students, so diplomas, transcripts and birth certificates are frequently translated and certified. For local businesses we translate contracts and technical documentation.
Typical legalization sequence
- Where needed, notarisation of a copy or translation
- Certification by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the issuing country
- Legalization by the embassy or consulate of the destination country
- In some cases, a final certification by the destination country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Frequently asked questions
How do I know whether I need an apostille or legalization?
It depends on whether the destination country is party to the 1961 Hague Convention. Tell us the country in your request and we will tell you which procedure applies.
Can you legalize at an embassy that has no office in Lithuania?
Yes. When a country has no mission in Lithuania, documents are legalized through its embassy accredited to Lithuania in another country. We organise the whole process.
What makes up the price of legalization?
The price includes our service, state fees and consular fees, which vary by country and document. All amounts are listed in the quote upfront.
