For which countries the Apostille is good?

The Apostille is affixed to Ukrainian documents intended to be used in any county that signed the Convention Abolishing the Requirement for Legalization for Foreign Public Documents (the Hague Convention). See the list of signatory countries below.

For which counties the Apostille certification is not applicable?

1. If you are preparing documents for a country that is not a member of the Hague Convention and it is not on the list of signatory countries, you need to submit your documents for consular legalization. For this purpose, apply to the Apostille and Document Issue Arrangement Division of the Consular Service Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Ukraine at 2 Velyka Zhytomyrska St, Kyiv, 01018, tel.: +380 44 238 16 69.

2. If you are preparing documents for a country that is a member of the Hague Convention but our countries have signed an agreement abolishing or simplifying the document legalization procedure, you do not need apostilization. If an institution in this foreign country still insists on your documents to be apostilized, the Ministry of Education and Science, Youth and Sports of Ukraine will not deny your Apostille application if you file it. Such countries include most former USSR countries and some other countries. In the list of signatory countries, such countries are marked with the star character (*). Your Ukrainian documents should be accepted in these countries without the Apostille certification or you may be asked to present the documents with notarized translations and the Apostille stamp affixed by the Ministry of Justice of Ukraine. Please clarify this question with the foreign institution for which you are preparing the document package.
