Certification required: The Grant of Probate must be the official sealed copy issued by the UK Probate Registry. It may need certification by a UK solicitor or notary public before apostille.

Not eligible for e-apostille: This document must go through the physical apostille process.
The document must bear the official probate court seal and the signature of an authorised officer.
