Swiss Apostille from Auckland – Scan-Based Service

If you live in Auckland and require a Swiss apostille, you’ll soon discover that the process cannot be completed in New Zealand. Swiss-issued documents — including birth certificates, marriage records, academic qualifications, business filings and notarised paperwork — must be authenticated inside Switzerland, not by NZ authorities, before they are accepted overseas. Neither the New Zealand Government nor the Department of Internal Affairs can apostille foreign documents. Our fully remote Swiss apostille service enables Auckland residents to complete the entire process without travel or embassy appointments.

A Swiss apostille is an internationally recognised certification confirming that a Swiss document is authentic and legally valid for use in countries participating in the Hague Apostille Convention. Individuals, families, students, employers and organisations throughout Auckland require apostilles for overseas work visas, university enrolment abroad, migration applications, international marriage, dual citizenship, adoption, cross-border business activity, contract enforcement and legal matters.

Our streamlined process begins online. Clients upload scanned copies of their Swiss documents to our secure submission portal. Our experts review each file to confirm eligibility and identify any required preliminary steps — such as ordering a newly issued civil registry certificate, notarising a signature, obtaining certified copies or arranging a translation. Completing these items before sending originals prevents delays once documents reach Switzerland.

After scans are approved, clients courier original documents to our Swiss processing facility. From here, we manage the entire workflow. Switzerland uses a decentralised legalisation system, which requires that documents be authenticated by the appropriate issuing authority:

• Civil registry offices — Birth, marriage & death certificates

• Universities & education providers — Diplomas, transcripts & student records

• Commercial registrars — Business filings, registry extracts & shareholder documents

• Licensed Swiss notaries — Powers of attorney, sworn declarations & notarised paperwork

• Courts & national authorities — Criminal checks, legal rulings & federal certificates

Incorrect routing often causes rejections — our experts ensure documents are processed correctly the first time.

Once the relevant authority verifies your document, we obtain the official Swiss apostille confirming international recognition. Apostilled originals are returned to Auckland via secure tracked courier — or delivered directly to:

• Overseas employers

• Universities & admissions departments

• Immigration & visa centres

• Lawyers & migration advisers

• Adoption agencies

• Licensing bodies

• Government agencies

• Corporate or legal recipients abroad

Auckland clients most commonly apostille:

• Birth, marriage & death certificates

• Diplomas, degrees & transcripts

• Powers of attorney & notarised letters

• Company registration documents & commercial agreements

• Criminal record checks & court documents

• International trade, tax & property paperwork

Whether you need legalisation for one document or a full portfolio, we provide secure handling, correct routing, status updates and professional support every step of the way.
