Embassy Legalization · Congo (Republic)Congo (Republic) is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention, so an apostille will not be accepted there. Every US document destined for Congo (Republic) has to be legalized step by step — notarized where required, authenticated by the issuing state, authenticated by the US Department of State, and finally legalized by the Embassy of Congo (Republic). Our Philadelphia team runs the entire chain and ships the finished file back to you.
Every stage has to happen in order, and every stage can send the file back. Select a stage to see exactly what happens and who signs.
Documents you sign — powers of attorney, affidavits, single status declarations, corporate resolutions — are notarized first, with complete commission wording the state will accept. We handle this at our Chestnut Hill office, by mobile notary, or by secure online notarization. Government-issued vital records skip this step because they are already certified.
Personal documents go straight through the chain. Commercial documents follow the same chain, with corporate certifications pulled from the issuing state first.
Our fee covers document review, notarization coordination, state authentication, US Department of State submission, consular submission, and tracked return delivery. Government and consular fees are passed through at cost — the Embassy of Congo (Republic) changes its schedule without notice.
One document carried through every stage to the Embassy of Congo (Republic), including courier handoffs and tracked return shipping.
Family files, employment packages, and corporate sets and certified French translation. Priced per document with a written quote before anything is filed.
