Embassy legalization and formalities
Many embassies handle legalizations and document formalities only in Madrid, with limited opening hours and appointments. We submit and collect your documents on your behalf and follow the file through to the end, wherever you are.
Spanish documents for use abroad
Once the ministry legalization is done, we submit the document to the consular section of the relevant embassy, pay the fees and collect it when it is ready. We keep you informed at every step.
Foreign documents for use in Spain
If your document comes from a country that does not use the apostille, it must be legalized in its country of origin and then at the Spanish embassy or consulate there. We coordinate the process through our international network and prepare the sworn translation into Spanish.

Frequently asked questions
Can you submit documents on my behalf?
Yes. At most embassies a signed authorization is enough. If one requires you to attend in person, we let you know and can arrange an interpreter to go with you.
Do you work with every embassy?
We work with the embassies and consulates accredited in Spain. Ask us about your specific country and we will confirm requirements and timelines.
How is this different from consular legalization?
Consular legalization is the full chain a document goes through; this service covers dealing with the embassy or consulate itself and the formalities that depend on it.
