What is legalization and the Hague Apostille?
The purpose of the legalization of foreign documents is to make them effective in Spain.
The Hague Apostille simplifies this procedure by means of a stamp and a signature on the document.
But it is only valid for countries that are members of the Hague Convention.
Therefore, the legalization of foreign documents, unless there is legislation to the contrary, will be carried out by means of the following:
- The Apostille, in case the country is a member of the Convention.
- A different legalization route, if the country is not a member of the Convention.
