Is an apostille recognised in Georgia?

Yes. Georgia is a member of the Hague Convention, so a Swedish apostille is accepted without further legalisation.

How long does an apostille for Georgia take?

Notarisation is typically same-day (handled remotely via video meeting). The apostille from Kammarkollegiet usually takes 1–3 business days.

How much does it cost?

Coordination through NotaryDirect is a flat 75 EUR per document. Notarisation and apostille are included — no hidden fees.

Can the notarisation be done remotely?

Yes. Most matters are handled remotely via video meeting with a Swedish Notary Public coordinated through NotaryDirect.

What is the difference between notarization and an apostille?

Notarisation is the act of a notary public verifying identity, witnessing a signature, or certifying a copy as authentic. An apostille is a separate certificate issued afterward that confirms the notarisation itself is valid for use in another Hague Convention country.

What is the difference between an apostille and legalisation?

An apostille is a simplified, single-step certification used between countries that are both members of the Hague Apostille Convention. Legalisation is a more complex, multi-step process, typically involving notarisation, government departments, and embassy or consular authentication, required when the destination country is not a Hague Convention member.

How do I know if my country is part of the Hague Apostille Convention?

You can check the official Hague Conference on Private International Law (HCCH) status table, which lists every contracting party to the Apostille Convention and the date it took effect for that country. This is the authoritative source for confirming Hague Convention membership. See HCCH status table: https://www.hcch.net/en/instruments/conventions/status-table/?cid=41

Can a document issued by a foreign authority be apostilled directly?

No. Foreign authority documents must first be notarised as a certified copy before an apostille can be issued. Civil documents such as powers of attorney or passport copies follow the same rule: notarisation first, then apostille.
