Introduction:
A birth certificate is one of the most commonly requested documents for apostille certification, especially for relocation, marriage, or dual citizenship applications abroad.
Step-by-step guide:
-
Obtain an original or certified copy of the birth certificate.
-
Submit it for verification – it must be signed or sealed by an authorised UK registrar.
-
Apply for the apostille – the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) attaches the apostille certificate.
-
Receive your document back – now officially recognised abroad.
Important note:
If your certificate is very old or handwritten, you may need to request a new copy before it can be apostilled.
