What can be apostilled in Kyrgyzstan?
Below are common document types and how apostille/legalization typically works for each. Always confirm consular requirements when the apostille is for a specific embassy or country.
Students — diplomas & educational documents
Diplomas and educational documents issued by Kyrgyz universities that bear official seals can be apostilled in Kyrgyzstan. Apostille may be applied on:
- The original diploma/certificate
- Notarized copy of the diploma
- Notarized translation (for example, a translation into English) — apostille on the notarized translation when allowed
Example: medical students can translate their diploma into English, notarize the translation and obtain an apostille on the notarized translation or on the original, depending on foreign authority requirements.
Documents issued by Kyrgyz government authorities
Documents such as Police Clearance (criminal record certificate), certificates from state registries, or other official statements issued by Kyrgyz authorities can be apostilled.
Options include apostille on:
- Original document
- Notarized copy
- Certified translation (English or other language), followed by notarization and apostille if required
Powers of Attorney, company charters & corporate documents
Documents bearing notary or state seals — such as POAs, company charters, registration documents and shareholder agreements — can be apostilled in Kyrgyzstan. Typically apostille is placed on the original or on a notarized copy. If a foreign-language version is required, we prepare a certified translation, notarize it, and arrange apostille/legalization as needed.
Tax documents & stamped papers
Tax documents that contain official stamps or state seals (tax certificates, registration documents, clearance letters) are eligible for apostille. We verify which version (original, copy, or translation) your receiving authority requires and process accordingly.
