Apostille for Peruvian documents
Apostille of Peruvian public documents for use in Hague Convention countries.
The apostille is the certificate that makes a Peruvian public document valid in the 120+ countries party to the 1961 Hague Convention, with no need to go through a consulate. In Peru it is issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We check that the document can be apostilled, handle any prior legalizations and obtain the apostille for you.
