Documents for Mexico: legalization and translation
Studying, working, marrying or settling in Mexico, or need to file a document from Mexico in Peru? We tell you the exact procedure and handle it for you.
Apostille
Mexico 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 Mexico with an apostille from the competent authority in Mexico.
Peruvian documents for use in Mexico
- Obtaining the document (if you don't have it, we request it for you).
- Apostille of the original at Peru's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
- Digital delivery and/or shipping of the originals to Mexico.
Documents from Mexico for use in Peru
Documents issued in Mexico must carry an apostille from Mexico. 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 Mexico
Documents for Mexico 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 Mexico?
Usually the original is apostilled first and then everything is translated, including the apostille. Some institutions in Mexico ask for the reverse order; we confirm before starting.
Can I do everything from abroad?
Yes. Many clients contact us from Mexico. We request, legalize and translate your Peruvian documents and ship them to you.
