Swiss Apostille from Bloemfontein – Scan-Based Service

If you live in Bloemfontein and require a Swiss apostille, you’ll quickly find that the service cannot be completed in South Africa. Swiss documents — including birth certificates, marriage records, academic qualifications, business documentation and notarised signatures — must be authenticated inside Switzerland, not in South Africa, before they are recognised overseas. DIRCO and provincial High Courts only apostille documents issued in South Africa. Our fully remote Swiss apostille service gives Bloemfontein residents, businesses, schools and attorneys full access to the correct process, without travel, queues or uncertainty.

A Swiss apostille is an internationally recognised certificate confirming that a Swiss-issued document is authentic and legally valid abroad. Residents and organisations in Bloemfontein often require Swiss apostilles for immigration, overseas employment, university enrolment abroad, marriage outside South Africa, dual citizenship applications, international adoption processes, professional licensing, offshore business activities, contract execution, and cross-border legal matters.

Our streamlined process begins online through our secure upload portal. Clients submit scanned copies of their Swiss documents. Our experts review every file to confirm eligibility and identify whether additional steps are required—such as ordering freshly issued civil documents, notarising a document in Switzerland, requesting certified duplicates, or arranging an accepted translation. Handling these steps early prevents delays later in the apostille chain.

Once your scans are approved, you send your original documents by courier to our Swiss processing centre. From there, we handle every stage of authentication. Switzerland uses a decentralised legalisation model, in which the correct authority must authenticate each class of document:

• Civil registry offices — Birth, marriage & death certificates

• Universities & academic institutions — Diplomas, degrees, transcripts & confirmations

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

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

• Swiss courts & federal authorities — Police clearances, legal rulings & national records

Submitting documents to the wrong authority is one of the most common—and avoidable—causes of rejection. Our routing eliminates that risk.

Once authentication is complete, we obtain the official Swiss apostille confirming your document’s international legal validity. Apostilled originals are then returned to Bloemfontein via secure tracked courier—or sent directly to:

• Overseas employers

• Universities abroad

• Migration offices

• Embassy or consulate channels

• Lawyers and immigration advisors

• Adoption and family-law bodies

• Professional boards

• Corporate or government partners abroad

Bloemfontein clients most commonly apostille:

• Birth, marriage & death certificates

• Diplomas, degrees & academic records
