Merger Agreement; Translate and notarize documents How to get Apostille from the Ministry of Foreign
1. Translate the Merger Agreement: If the target country has a different official language, translate the
Merger Agreement into the local language. Ensure accuracy and capture the intended meaning of the original document.
2. Notarize the Documents: Notarize the translated Merger Agreement by signing it in the
presence of a notary public. This step confirms the authenticity and validity of the document.
3. Authenticate at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs: Contact the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or a similar authority
in your home country responsible for document authentication. Submit the notarized and translated Merger Agreement for authentication.
This process varies by country, and you may need to complete specific forms and pay applicable fees.
4. Obtain an Apostille: Once the document is authenticated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, apply for an Apostille.
The Apostille is an official certificate that verifies the authenticity of the document and makes it valid for use in countries that are part of
the Apostille Convention. The designated authority for issuing Apostilles will depend on your home country's regulations.
5. Embassy Certification: If the target country is not part of the Apostille Convention, you may need to proceed with embassy certification.
Submit the Apostille-authenticated Merger Agreement to the embassy or consulate of the target country in your home country.
They will verify the authenticity of the document and provide certification or additional stamps as required.
Please note that the specific procedures and requirements for obtaining an Apostille and embassy certification can vary between countries.
It is essential to consult with the relevant authorities or seek legal advice to ensure compliance
with the specific regulations of both your home country and the target country.
