FCDO Document Requirements: Original Documents Required

The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) does not accept photocopies of certain documents, whether submitted individually or as part of a bundle. To avoid rejection, ensure you provide original documents for the following:

  • ACRO Police Certificate

  • DBS Certificate

  • Marriage Certificate

  • Birth Certificate

  • Death Certificate

  • Civil Partnership Certificate

  • Certificate of No Impediment

Important: Submitting photocopies of these documents will result in rejection by the FCDO. For a smooth legalisation process, refer to our document submission guidelines and explore our consular legalisation services to ensure compliance.
