We help customers in Hexham and across Northumberland by post, so you do not need to travel to us.
Which documents do people need?
Public documents such as birth and marriage certificates can go straight to the FCDO. Private documents such as degree certificates and powers of attorney need certifying by a UK notary or solicitor first. See our document guides and apostille vs notarisation.
Sending documents from Northumberland
Send your original documents to us by tracked, signed-for post and we return them by tracked delivery. Keep your proof of postage and a copy of everything you send. Contact us first if you are unsure whether you need an original or a certified copy.
Cost
Our apostille price is £100 per document, including the FCDO fee and tracked return, and we aim to finish within 2 working days of your documents arriving at our office. Notarisation or solicitor certification, where needed, is quoted separately before you pay. See our pricing page.
