Legalisation of documents

06.01.2007

On 1 January 2007 Denmark acceded to the Hague Apostille Convention of 5 October 1961 abolishing the requirement of legalisation for foreign public documents. Therefore documents issued by Danish authorities and approved in the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs with special Apostille stamp can be used in Estonia without need for further legalisation by the Estonian Embassy in Copenhagen or by the Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Tallinn.

Further information regarding Apostille proceeding for Danish documents is available from the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs homepage in Danish  and in English.
