Which route applies?
Afghan documents for the Netherlands: Afghanistan is not a member of the Apostille Convention, so Afghan documents are normally verified by the competent Afghan authorities and then legalized by the embassy or consulate of the Netherlands responsible for Afghanistan.
Documents issued in the Netherlands: the Netherlands is a member of the Apostille Convention, so documents issued there can usually receive an apostille from the competent authority in the Netherlands. Whether an apostilled document is accepted in Afghanistan, or whether further legalization is required, depends on the receiving office — we check this for you.
Requirements change and individual offices may ask for more. We always confirm the current route for your document before you pay.
