Laos Apostille
Legalization Services
If you're planning to work, study, or conduct business in Laos, any U.S.-issued documents must be legalized through the Lao Embassy, as Laos is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Apostilles are not valid in Laos, so a multi-step consular legalization process is required for your documents to be accepted.
Documents commonly requiring legalization for Laos include:
-
Corporate documents: business licenses, powers of attorney, commercial agreements.
-
Educational records: diplomas, transcripts, professional certifications.
-
Personal documents: background checks, birth and marriage certificates, affidavits.
Legalization Process

Where applicable, documents must first be notarized by a licensed notary.
