The Hague Convention Apostille is a simplified method for the legalisation of documents for the purpose of verifying their authenticity in the environment of international private law. It physically consists of a page added to documents which the competent authority stamps on a copy of the public document. Information on the legalisation procedure should be obtained from the university at which the course of study was completed, consular services in the country of issue or the competent authority in each case. For reference, you may consult HccH website.
Where an apostille is not possible, legalisation of documents should be carried out by the diplomatic mission or consular office of Spain in the country of issue.
Legalisation is not required for documents issued within European Union member states and countries signatory to the Agreement on the European Economic Area or a bilateral agreement with the European Union. However, certificates issued by universities in these countries must have been issued with the approval of the rector or equivalent figure and bear the corresponding signature.
