Apostille for Marital Status Certificate Switzerland

If you need to use a Swiss Marital Status Certificate abroad, obtaining an apostille is often a mandatory legal requirement. Our apostille service for marital status certificates issued in Switzerland ensures that your civil status document is properly legalized and accepted internationally without unnecessary delays (apostille for Marital Status Certificate Switzerland).

A Swiss Marital Status Certificate is an official civil registry document issued by the Swiss civil registry office (Zivilstandsamt / Office de l’état civil / Ufficio dello stato civile). It confirms a person’s current marital status, such as single, married, divorced, widowed, or in a registered partnership. This certificate is commonly required for legal, administrative, immigration, and family-related procedures abroad.

When a Swiss Marital Status Certificate is presented in another country that is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, it must be apostilled in Switzerland to verify the authenticity of the issuing authority’s signature and official seal. Without an apostille, foreign authorities may refuse to accept the document or request additional legalization steps.

What Is an Apostille and Why Is It Required?

An apostille is an official certification that validates a public document for international use. It confirms that the document was issued by a competent Swiss authority and that the signature and seal are genuine. Once apostilled, a Swiss Marital Status Certificate is legally recognized in all Hague Convention countries without the need for embassy or consular legalization.

• Marriage or remarriage abroad

• Immigration and family reunification applications
