Apostille for a Certificate of no impediment

Requirements, pricing and turnaround for getting a UK apostille on your certificate of no impediment.

Certification process

A certificate of no impediment is a UK public document, so it can go straight to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) for the apostille certificate. This is the usual route, but confirm the exact requirements with us when you start your order.

Document requirements

Original only.

Digital e-Apostille

Possibly — an e-Apostille needs a PDF of your certificate of no impediment that has been electronically signed by a UK solicitor or notary public. If you only hold the paper version, you'll need the paper apostille.

The Hague Convention

An apostille authenticates a UK public document for use in countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention. Destinations outside the convention may need further embassy legalisation instead.
