Because Nigeria is not part of the Apostille Convention, a Nigerian document used abroad normally needs a chain of certifications. Each authority confirms the signature of the one before it, so the order matters and one missing stamp can send a file back to the start.

Edo State sits in Nigeria's South South zone, with its capital at Benin City. We serve individuals, families and companies across the state, from Auchi, Ekpoma and Uromi, with certified translation, legalisation, document retrieval and interpreting.

We manage the whole chain: verification by the issuing body, notarisation when required, authentication at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Abuja, and legalisation at the embassy or consulate of the country where the document will be used. For foreign documents needed in Nigeria, our offices abroad arrange legalisation with the Nigerian mission in that country.

How it works

  1. Check the requirements

    We confirm what the destination embassy expects for your document type, including translations.

  2. Verification and notarisation

    The document is verified by the issuing body and notarised where required.

  3. Ministry of Foreign Affairs

    We submit the document for authentication at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Abuja.

  4. Embassy or consulate

    We file it with the embassy or consulate of the destination country and collect it once legalised.

  5. Return

    The legalised document is couriered back to you, with scans of every stamp.

Which embassies do you work with?
