Pricing for our Services
At Boettcher Law, our Notary Public Canberra services cost $150 per document. If a document needs checking, there’s an extra $60 fee. Multiple documents might mean extra costs.
What Happens After the Legal Check?
Once your document is legally checked, overseas governments, courts, and institutions may need proof of its reality. Our team will guide you through getting the Australian Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) to confirm the Notarial signature and seal. They will compare it with a sample of the Notary’s signature and seal, then mark the document with an Authentication or Apostille.
Choosing Between Authentication and Apostille
The kind of mark your document needs depends on the specific country. If the documents are going to countries that signed the 1961 Hague Convention, you’ll need an Apostille. For countries not part of the Hague Convention, an Authentication is needed. Our Notary Public Canberra team is here to guide you.
Authentication and Apostille Fees
After getting your document legally checked with Boettcher Law’s Notary Public Canberra, you’ll need to give it to DFAT. This involves a fee. If your document needs to be checked by a consulate or embassy, there’s a fee for that too.
