Documents for Spain: legalization and translation
Studying, working, marrying or settling in Spain, or need to file a document from Spain in Peru? We tell you the exact procedure and handle it for you.
Apostille
Spain 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 Spain with an apostille from the competent authority in Spain.

- Apostille of the original at Peru's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

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 Spain?
Usually the original is apostilled first and then everything is translated, including the apostille. Some institutions in Spain ask for the reverse order; we confirm before starting.
Can I do everything from abroad?
Yes. Many clients contact us from Spain. We request, legalize and translate your Peruvian documents and ship them to you.
