MEA Apostille &
Certified Translation Guide
Under Greek law, official documents submitted to consulates or authorities must be translated to Greek by a court-certified translator. Before translation, documents must obtain the official MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) Apostille in their country of origin. We handle both steps for you.
Official Court Stamps
Every page of the translation must feature the court-registered translator\'s official seal and court registry statement.
Hague Apostille integration
We secure the Apostille stamp first and translate it fully as part of the legalised document packet.
