Legalization of documents for Kuwait

What is legalization for Kuwait and why is it needed?

Consular legalization of documents is an official procedure for the preparation of documents in order for them to have legal force on the territory of Kuwait.

If you want to fully use documents abroad, and more specifically in the Socialist Republic of Kuwait, you need to legalize them through Consular legalization.

Legalization procedure for Kuwait:

1. Notarized translation into Arabic or English. **
2. The seal of the Ministry of Justice shall be affixed to the notarized translation;
3. Next - the seal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs;
4. The final stage of consular legalization is the submission of documents to the consular department of the Embassy of Kuwait in Ukraine for affixing the seal of the consulate.

Consular legalization of a diploma, Police Clearance Certificates, marriage certificates, birth certificates and other documents issued in Ukraine is done for the reason that the documents are not recognized on the territory of Kuwait. In order for the documents to be valid, they need to be legalized correctly at the embassy.

** EXCEPTION consists of a marriage certificate and a Police Clearance Certificate, a certificate of marital status:
1. Marriage certificate (the first step is affixing the seal of the Ministry of Justice on the original document, the second step is affixing the seal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, also on the original, and only then - translation);
2. Police Clearance Certificate (the first step is the seal of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on the original, the second step is a notarized translation)

IMPORTANT! Certification of documents in the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Embassy of Kuwait can be done only in Kyiv. At the same time, the personal presence of the owner of the documents is not required. It is enough to make a power of attorney for the company’s employees, provide the original document and a copy of the passport.
