Saudi Arabia Apostille & Document Attestation
The Apostille Convention has applied to Saudi Arabia since 7 December 2022. For covered Turkish public documents, an apostille replaces consular legalisation. Translation requirements and the route for excluded documents must be confirmed with the receiving authority.
Check document scope before processing
An apostille authenticates the signature, the capacity of the signer and the seal or stamp; it does not certify the document's content or guarantee acceptance. Diplomatic or consular documents and some administrative documents directly related to commercial or customs operations may fall outside the Convention.
Document check process
Classify the document
Confirm that the document is a public document covered by the Apostille Convention.
Confirm the competent authority
Obtain the apostille only from the Turkish authority designated for that document type.
Confirm translation requirements
Ask the Saudi receiving authority which language and translation format it accepts.
Handle excluded documents separately
If the document is outside the Convention, confirm the current legalisation route with the Saudi mission and receiving authority.
Delivery
Collect the completed document or request courier delivery to your address.
Example timing when embassy legalisation is specifically required

|---|---|
| Sworn translation + notarisation | 1 business day |
| Ministry of Foreign Affairs | 1–2 business days |

Frequently asked questions
Is Arabic translation always required for Saudi Arabia?
Not automatically. The Saudi receiving authority determines the required language and translation format for each procedure.
Do I need to come to Ankara in person?
No. Send your documents by courier. We complete all steps and send the attested documents back to your address in Turkey or abroad.
Can you handle Iqama-related documents?
Yes. We first confirm whether apostille, translation or a profession-specific verification process applies to the document.
What if a professional body has additional requirements?
Medical, engineering and other professional bodies may impose checks beyond apostille. Confirm those requirements before translation or authentication.
