What is an Express Apostille service
An Express Apostille is an expedited UK document legalisation service that allows you to obtain an official Apostille certificate within just one working day after your documents are submitted.
This fast-track service is ideal for individuals, families, and businesses who need their UK documents quickly recognised abroad without unnecessary delays.
An Apostille is an official certification that verifies the authenticity of a document for use in countries that are members of the 1961 Hague Convention. Once Apostilled, your document is legally recognised internationally without the need for further consular or embassy legalisation.
Documents eligible for Apostille legalisation
Common documents that can be Apostilled include:
- Birth, marriage, or death certificates – for personal, family, or legal matters abroad.
- Academic diplomas and certificates – for study, employment, or professional recognition overseas.
- Notarial deeds and powers of attorney – for legal authorisations, property transactions, or business representation abroad.
- Corporate and commercial documents – such as company certificates, articles of association, or financial statements for international trade and compliance.
With our Express Apostille Service, your documents are processed securely, accurately, and within 24 hours, ensuring fast legal recognition in all Hague Convention member countries.
