Swiss Apostille from Victoria – Scan-Based Service

If you live in Victoria and require a Swiss apostille, you’ll quickly discover that the process cannot be completed through Canadian authorities. Swiss-issued documents — including birth certificates, marriage papers, diplomas, corporate records and notarised statements — must be authenticated in Switzerland, not in Canada, before they are recognised in other countries. Navigating these international requirements can be confusing and time-consuming. Our remote Swiss apostille service makes it simple for Victoria residents by handling the entire process from start to finish.

A Swiss apostille is a government-issued certificate confirming that a document created in Switzerland is authentic and legally recognised in all countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention. Victoria residents, students, organisations and legal professionals often need apostilles for immigration filings, studying abroad, overseas work, marriage outside Canada, adoption, dual citizenship, corporate expansion, international legal matters or real estate transactions overseas.

Our service is secure, streamlined and entirely online. You begin by uploading scanned copies of your Swiss documents through our encrypted submission portal. Our specialists analyse your scans to confirm eligibility and determine whether additional steps are required — such as ordering newly issued registry certificates, obtaining notarisation, requesting certified copies or arranging translation. Addressing these requirements at the start avoids delays after originals are sent.

Once approved, you mail your physical documents by courier to our Swiss processing centre. From this point, we manage all communication, routing and submission. Switzerland operates a decentralised authentication system — meaning that documents must pass through different authorities depending on their category. These include:

• Civil registry offices — Birth, marriage and death certificates

• Universities and academic institutions — Diplomas, transcripts & graduation confirmations

• Commercial registrars — Corporate filings, trade registry extracts & incorporation evidence

• Licensed Swiss notaries — Sworn declarations, notarised signatures & powers of attorney

• Courts and federal agencies — Judicial rulings, background checks & national certificates

Routing documents incorrectly can result in major processing delays — and our expertise ensures correct submission the first time.

After the document has been verified by the responsible authority, we obtain the official Swiss apostille, certifying that it is legally accepted abroad. Apostilled originals are then shipped back securely to Victoria via tracked courier — or sent directly to an international recipient such as:

• University admissions

• Employers or licensing bodies abroad

• Immigration lawyers

• Consulates or embassies

• Adoption or legal agencies

• Government departments
