How does an Apostille certificate work?
The Apostille Certificate is issued by an authority designated by South Africa, called the "Competent Authority". This certificate facilitates the exchange and verification of public documents between signatory countries of the Hague Convention. The Convention abolishes the legalisation process and replaces it with the single formality of an authentication certificate.
The person in the Country of Destination (where the document will be used) cannot judge the authenticity of the document based on face value as they may not be familiar with the identity or official capacity of the person who signed the document or the identity of the authority whose seal and/or stamp it bears. Therefore, the origin of a foreign public document must be certified by an official who is familiar with the document. The verification of any signature on a document is known as ‘authentication’.
An apostille is an internationally recognised document used to certify the authenticity of a document's signature, seal, or stamp. It is commonly used when documents are transferred from one country to another. The apostille is issued by an authorised government official, such as a notary public, and then authenticated by the issuing country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (DIRCO) or the High Court.
Once the apostille is issued, it can be used in any other country that is a member of the Hague Convention, a multilateral treaty that establishes the rules and procedures for the authentication of documents. An apostille is a convenient and efficient way to verify the authenticity of documents that need to be transferred from one country to another. It is a form of international authentication that is accepted by most countries around the world.
By obtaining an apostille, individuals and organizations can ensure that their documents are properly certified and accepted by foreign authorities. The apostille process is straightforward and involves the document's signature, seal, or stamp being verified by an authorized government official, followed by authentication by the issuing country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Once the apostille is issued and attached to your document, it can be used in any other country that is a member of the Hague Convention, a multilateral treaty that establishes the rules and procedures for the authentication of documents. In other words, the apostille is an internationally recognised document that allows documents to be transferred from one country to another easily and confidently.
How does a Apostille Certificate Look Like?
The Apostille attached to the document is proof that the document is genuine and issued by a legitimate entity. It is an essential part of the process for obtaining visas, passports and other official documents and is recognised across the world.

"Notarising and Apostillising Your Documents: A Guide for South Africans"
When dealing with official South African documents, it's important to know whether or not they need to be notarised and apostillised before they can be used abroad. In this article, we'll go over the requirements and the process of notarising and apostillising documents.
What is Notarisation?
Notarisation is the process of verifying the legitimacy of a document's signatures and contents by a notary public (a specialist attorney). This process is required when a South African document needs to be used in a foreign country. The notary public's signature on the document will need to be verified or authenticated for the foreign country to accept the document as valid.
What is Apostillisation?
Apostillisation is the process of authenticating a notarised document by issuing an Apostille certificate. This certificate confirms the document's validity and makes it legally recognized in foreign countries that are members of the Hague Convention.
Which Countries Require Apostillisation?
Not all countries require apostillisation, only those that are members of the Hague Convention. If the country where the South African document will be used is a member of this convention, the document will need to be apostillised.
How to Apostillise a Document
The process of apostillising a document is relatively straightforward. Here are the steps:
- Notarise the document: The first step is to have the document notarised by a notary public.
- Obtain an Apostille certificate: After the document has been notarised, an Apostille certificate can be obtained from the Department of International Relations and Cooperation.
- Submit the document and certificate: Finally, submit the notarised document and the Apostille certificate to the foreign country where the document will be used.
Notarising and apostillising documents is an important step for South Africans who need to use their official documents abroad. Whether an Apostille or a Certificate of Authentication is required will depend on the country where the document will be used. By following the steps outlined in this article, you can ensure that your document is legally recognized in the foreign country.

Apart from authentication been done by the High Court, documents must be presented at DIRCO (Legalisation Section at the Department of International Relations and Cooperation). DIRCO will place a further authentication on the document attesting to the veracity of the signature of the High Court Official.
Some countries require further legalisation by means of Embassy Attestation. Also see our Embassy Attestation Page.

Consent for Minor Child To Travel. Notarised and authenticated
Child abduction has become a growing concern for governments around the world. For this reason, “Consent to Travel” letters are required by an increasing number of governments. When a child travels without one parent, the remaining parent gives written permission for the child/children to leave the country. It is often required that the document be notarised and legalised to verify the signature and identity of the parties involved. This document would be presented to various authorities in South Africa and abroad as evidence that the child/children travelling abroad have not been abducted by their accompanying adult.
Some documents, such as Child Travel Consent forms, are not only necessary but also helpful in keeping children protected. Child Travel Consent forms reduce the risk of abduction or child trafficking. This keeps children safe and prevents missing children from leaving the country.
How do you know if it is needed?
It is best to check with South African Foreign Affairs, your airline, travel agent, or government officials in the country you are visiting to see if it is required. Travelling without consent to travel can lead to travel delays or even denial of exit/entry by one or more of your groups.
Regulations may not require you to provide a Child Travel Consent form if you are flying with children but be sure to check the airline or country border control requirements. Even if a form isn’t legally required, a Child Travel Consent form is highly recommended. Without the proper documents, officers or attendants may not allow you or your child to travel in or out of the country.
Having your Child Travel Consent witnessed or notarised decreases the chance of travel authorities questioning its validity. The country you are travelling to and the airline you are using will affect the legalisation process.
Children Traveling with One Parent
If your child is travelling with only one parent, that parent will need a Child Travel Consent letter that has the other, non-travelling parent’s name, signature, and a short statement authorizing the travel arrangements.
A common scenario for a child traveling with one parent is when the parents are separated or divorced. Custody arrangements can be complex and modify the rules for travel in different ways, but in general it’s important that the child has a travel consent form signed by the non-traveling parent.
With separated parents, it’s also recommended that the parent traveling with the child carry extra documents that demonstrate proof of guardianship, like custody papers, adoption papers, and the child’s birth certificate,
Similar rules apply for a child traveling with adult relatives, like a brother, sister, aunt, uncle, or grandparents, but in this case the travel consent letter must contain the name and signature of both parents instead of just one.
For international travel, some countries may require specific or additional documentation. You can check requirements with the embassy of the country your child is traveling to for more information.
What should the Consent to Travel contain:
We are happy to notarise and authenticate your consent to travel letter for use in any country in the world. It is a quick and effortless process for you. Not sure where to find one? For a small additional fee, we can draft your consent to travel on the spot – without an appointment. message us for more information.
- The child’s contact information
- Both parents’ contact information
- The child’s travel arrangement (one parent, no parents, chaperone, group travel etc.)
- The child’s destination and dates of travel
- Proof of their relationship to their child

What is a notary public?
What does a Notary do?
Part of a Notary's duty is to screen the individuals who sign important documents for their true identity, their awareness of the contents of the document or transaction, and their willingness to sign without coercion or intimidation. Some situations require a Notary to put the individual under oath, declaration under penalty of perjury that the information contained in a document is true and correct.
A Notary Public has to have impartiality as a foundational value. They need to be duty-bound and thus cannot act in situations with personal interest. The public trusts that the Notary's screening tasks are corruption-and self-interest free. Impartiality also assures that a Notary never refuses to serve a person due to their religion, race, nationality, politics, sexual orientation, or status as a non-customer.
By law, the following documents need to be drawn up by a Notary:
- Antenuptial Contracts
- Long-term Leases
- Servitudes (personal and praedial)
- Cession of Rights in Sectional Title Schemes
- Notarial Bonds
- Marriage certificates
- Birth certificates
- Death certificates
- Single status certificates
- Divorce certificates
- Police clearance certificates
- Powers of attorney
- Copies of IDs or passports
- Educational documents
