Frequently asked questions
Do I need to travel to get my documents processed in São Tomé?
No. We collect and return documents by hand in São Tomé city and deal with ministries, notaries and embassies on your behalf.
How much does a certified translation cost?
The price depends on the language, number of pages or words, deadline and any extra steps (apostille, legalization, shipping). That's why we always send a free, fixed quote after seeing your documents.
What is the difference between an apostille and legalization?
An apostille is a single certificate valid between Hague Convention countries. Consular legalization is a chain of verifications (ministry, Foreign Affairs, embassy) required by all other countries.
