Apostille
When it comes to applying for your Visa, you will be required to provide documents that have been legalised and translated.
You can get certain official UK documents ‘legalised’ otherwise known as an apostille.
​
You can get documents legalised if they’ve been issued by a:
Court and sealed with a wet ink court seal
Public registry, such as a birth, marriage or death certificate, or a company certificate issued by Companies House
Government department and signed by an official, such as a letter of confirmation of tax registration
Registered doctor, such as a medical certificate signed by a doctor
​
You can also get other documents legalised, as long as they’ve been certified by a UK ‘public official’, such as a UK notary or solicitor.
For example:
Documents such as a power of attorney, a contract or a qualification certificate
Copies of documents such as a passport or a driving licence
