An HMRC document is an official record issued by His Majesty’s Revenue and Customs. It may include tax returns, residency certificates, employment records, or confirmation of self-employment, often required for financial, legal, or immigration use abroad.

This document is often requested by:

• Foreign tax authorities
• Immigration and visa offices
• Overseas banks or financial institutions
• Embassies and consulates for proof of income or residency

Certification required: HMRC documents must be certified by a UK solicitor or notary public before they can be apostilled.

Original document: The apostille will be applied to the certified original or a solicitor-certified copy.

Not eligible for e-apostille: HMRC documents must go through the physical apostille process.

The document must clearly show the HMRC logo, date, and reference or officer name.

Online documents must be downloaded in full and certified by a solicitor or notary.

Some countries may request a translation and embassy legalisation after apostille. Always confirm the destination country’s requirements.
