FAQ

Apostille & Legalization Questions

Does every Bulgarian document need an apostille for use in the U.S.?

No. Requirements depend on the document and the institution receiving it. The intended use should be confirmed before ordering authentication.

Can you help with a U.S. document that will be used in Bulgaria?

Yes. We can help review the likely preparation path, including apostille and translation steps where applicable.

Is translation included automatically?

Not necessarily. Translation requirements depend on the destination and receiving authority, so translation is scoped when needed.

What should I send first?

Send a clear copy of the document, who issued it, where it will be used and any instructions from the receiving institution.

What is the difference between apostille and legalization?

The required authentication route depends on the countries involved, the document and its intended use. We review the specific situation rather than applying one process to every document.
