Legalisation of Dutch documents for use abroad
To use a Dutch document abroad, like an educational certificate, marriage certificate or medical certificate, you may need to have it legalised. Check this by selecting the type of document and the country where you want to use it.
Attention: Do you have a document that was not issued in the Netherlands? Select the country where the document was issued and find out what you need to do on the page Legalisation of foreign documents for use in the Netherlands.
Information: You can use documents issued by countries or municipalities that are part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (Aruba, Curaçao, Bonaire, St. Maarten, Saba and St. Eustatius) anywhere in the Kingdom without legalisation.
