Serbia Apostille Service

Certify documents issued in Serbia for official use in the United Kingdom and abroad.

Certify documents issued in Serbia for international use

Apostille Stamps in Serbia can be obtained to authenticate official Serbian documents such as Birth, Death and Marriage Certificates, Certificates of No Conviction (Uverenje o nekaznjavanju), University diplomas and transcripts, and documents certified by a Notary (including powers of attorney and affidavits).

Serbian Apostille stamps are issued by Municipal Courts. Documents needed for submission in non-apostille countries require additional legalization by the Ministry of Justice and Serbian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, before final attestation by the embassy of the recipient country.

  • We work with all major embassies in Belgrade, including the embassies of Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and also the Vietnamese embassy in Bucharest and the Taipei Representative Office in Budapest to attest Serbian university degrees and other documents.

Legalize Serbian Documents

Serbian documents can be legalized for cross-border use by means of Apostille Certification or Consular Legalization

Apostille Certification

An Apostille Stamp is a simplified procedure of international attestation. When affixed to documents, Apostilles are directly recognised by the authorities of over 120 countries (Signatories of the Hague Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents Hague Apostille ConventionExternal link (opens in new tab)) as certifying the document’s validity, without requiring additional certification.

Since Serbia is a signatory to the convention, Isarey can assist by obtaining Apostille Certification for Serbian documents so that they are valid for official use in other signatory countries, including: ES SpainSpain - IT ItalyItaly - PT PortugalPortugal - GR GreeceGreece - CY CyprusCyprus - FR FranceFrance - SA Saudi ArabiaSaudi Arabia - DE GermanyGermany - CN ChinaChina

See additional notes below

Consular Legalization
Consular Legalization is required when a document from Serbia is to be used in a non-signatory country. In this case, following authentication by authorities in Serbia, the document must be certified a second time in Serbia by the embassy representing the country where the document is to be used.

Countries which do not recognise Apostille certification and require consular legalization include: AE United Arab EmiratesUnited Arab Emirates - QA QatarQatar - TH ThailandThailand - TW TaiwanTaiwan - VN VietnamVietnam

Civil status certificates (multilingual extracts from the civil status registers)
Serbian birth, marriage and death certificates) issued in accordance with the conventions of the International Commission on Civil and Civil Status should not require Apostille Stamps when being submitted to one of the following countries:

Austria, Belgium, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cape Verde, Estonia, France, Germany, Italy, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Moldova, Montenegro, Netherlands, Poland, Romania, Slovenia, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey.

Certified Translation

Where Serbian documents are to be used abroad and where the receiving country has a different official language, certified translation may also be required. Isarey takes care of any certified translations required as part of the document attestation process, ensuring that translations are carried out and certified in accordance with local regulations.

Note that a certified translation on its own only provides assurance that the translation itself is accurate and true; it does not confirm the authenticity of the original document. The original document must be legalized for a certified translation to carry equivalent legal weight.
