Kurdistan Legalization for Private Individuals in Switzerland

Swiss personal documents intended for use in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI) must undergo a formal consular legalization process before they are officially recognized by local authorities. Apostilles.ch provides a professional Kurdistan legalization service for private individuals in Switzerland, ensuring your personal documents are handled accurately, securely, and in full compliance with official requirements.

The Kurdistan Region of Iraq is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. As a result, Swiss personal documents cannot be legalized by apostille alone. Instead, they must pass through a multi-step legalization procedure, generally involving Swiss authorities and the Iraqi diplomatic representation responsible for Kurdistan-related matters. This process can be complex, particularly for civil status, family, and educational documents. Our experienced specialists manage the entire procedure on your behalf.

Personal Documents We Legalize for Kurdistan

We assist private individuals with the legalization of a wide range of Swiss-issued personal documents, including:

• Birth certificates

• Marriage certificates

• Divorce certificates

• Death certificates

• Certificates of residence

• Criminal record extracts

• Medical certificates

• Educational diplomas and transcripts

• Powers of attorney and sworn declarations

Each document is carefully reviewed before submission to ensure it meets the requirements of the relevant Kurdish and Iraqi authorities.

The Kurdistan Legalization Process

Legalization of personal documents for use in the Kurdistan Region generally involves the following steps:

1. Notarization or certification, where required

2. Authentication by cantonal authorities

3. Federal authentication in Switzerland, if applicable

4. Legalization by the Iraqi Embassy or Consulate, recognized for use in the Kurdistan Region

Depending on the intended use, certified Arabic and/or Kurdish translations may be required. Apostilles.ch coordinates all steps to ensure correct sequencing and full compliance with applicable regulations.
