Documents for Chile: legalization and translation
Studying, working, marrying or settling in Chile, or need to file a document from Chile in Peru? We tell you the exact procedure and handle it for you.
Apostille
Chile is party to the 1961 Hague Convention, so Peruvian public documents are legalized with an apostille from Peru's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and documents from Chile with an apostille from the competent authority in Chile.

Documents from Chile for use in Peru
Documents issued in Chile must carry an apostille from Chile. If they are not in Spanish, they are filed in Peru with a certified or official translation. We handle the translation and, if needed, the apostille at source.
Languages for Chile
Documents for Chile usually need no translation if they are in Spanish, but they do need the appropriate apostille or legalization.
Requirements may change and vary by institution. We always verify the current procedure before starting your case.
Frequently asked questions
Is the translation done before or after the apostille for Chile?
Usually the original is apostilled first and then everything is translated, including the apostille. Some institutions in Chile ask for the reverse order; we confirm before starting.
Can I do everything from abroad?
Yes. Many clients contact us from Chile. We request, legalize and translate your Peruvian documents and ship them to you.
