Legalisation of Dutch documents for use abroad
To use a Dutch document abroad, like an educational certificate, marriage certificate or medical certificate, you may need to have it legalised. Check this by selecting the type of document and the country where you want to use it.
Warning: The Iraqi embassy in the Netherlands does not currently legalise documents. Ask the organisation requesting the document what you can do as an alternative.
Information: You can use documents issued by countries or municipalities that are part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands (Aruba, Curaçao, Bonaire, St. Maarten, Saba and St. Eustatius) anywhere in the Kingdom without legalisation.
