Translation and legalization of documents for Ethiopia
Studying, working, marrying, investing or settling in Ethiopia? Your documents usually need a certified translation and an official authentication before they are accepted. We prepare the complete file from Djibouti.
Embassy legalization
Ethiopia is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention. Foreign documents therefore generally require consular legalization: certification by the authorities of the issuing country, including its Ministry of Foreign Affairs, followed by the embassy or consulate of Ethiopia, and sometimes a final step with the authorities in Ethiopia.
Rules can change and may differ by document type and receiving authority. We confirm the current requirements before starting each file.
Typical steps
- Check of the receiving authority's requirements
- Retrieval of the original or a certified copy if needed
- Certified translation into the required language
- Apostille or legalization of the document and/or translation
- Delivery of the complete file, ready to submit
Common reasons
- Visa and residence permit
- University admission and diploma recognition
- Marriage and family reunification
- Employment contracts
