Vietnam Embassy Attestation
If you are planning to travel to Vietnam for work, education, business, or residence, your documents must be legally accepted by the Vietnamese authorities. This is where Vietnam Apostille & Embassy Attestation becomes essential.
Unlike many countries, Vietnam is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, which means Apostille is not accepted. Instead, documents must go through the Embassy Attestation (Legalization) process.
This blog explains the complete procedure, requirements, processing time, and why professional attestation services can simplify the entire process.
What Is Vietnam Embassy Attestation?
Vietnam Embassy Attestation (or Legalization) is the process of validating your documents so they are officially recognized by:
- Vietnam Embassy in India
- Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Vietnam)
- Government authorities in Vietnam
This attestation confirms that your Indian-issued documents are genuine and valid for use in Vietnam.
