DocsBase is equipped to handle all of these services under one roof. We have in-house translators for most common language pairs and trusted freelancers for the very unique combinations. In this way, we fulfil our motto of being able translate anything and everything. Getting an apostille for a translation of a birth certificate is different than getting one for the actual birth certificate. The translation must be certified and notarized. That notary must then be authenticated before being taken to the FCO for the apostille.

When it comes to this process, every country is different. This applies when the country you are submitting documents to is not a signatory to The Hague Convention.
