Document Verification, Apostille & Legalisation

Without correctly authenticated documents, you cannot obtain a legal teaching work permit in Vietnam, the Philippines, or most other countries. We manage the full authentication pipeline so you can focus on preparing for your move.

Our Services

Apostille Authentication

An apostille is an internationally recognised certificate that authenticates your document for use in 118 countries that have signed the Hague Convention. Issued by the FCDO (UK), Secretary of State (USA), or DIRCO (South Africa).

Processing time: 5–10 working days. Cost: from £85 per document.

Degree Certificate Legalisation (for Vietnam)

Vietnam is not a Hague Convention member, so your degree needs full legalisation: notarisation → FCDO authentication → Vietnamese Embassy attestation. This is mandatory for a Vietnamese teaching work permit.

Processing time: 2–5 weeks. Cost: from £145 per document.

Criminal Record Check Legalisation

All teaching employers require a criminal record certificate (DBS/ACRO, FBI, SAPS) authenticated and legalised for the work permit application. Certificate must be issued within 6 months.
