Apostille Legalization Services
When presenting documents in Sierra Leone, it’s important to know that apostilles are not accepted, as the country is not a member of the Hague Convention. Instead, you must complete a multi-step embassy legalization process for your documents to be recognized.
This applies to:
-
Commercial documents: trade licenses, business registration, invoices.
-
Academic records: school diplomas, transcripts, certifications.
-
Personal documents: birth and marriage certificates, background checks, affidavits.
Legalization Process
Document Notarization
Required for most non-official documents.
