A school document refers to any official paper issued by a UK school, such as transcripts, enrolment letters, attendance records or confirmation of studies. These are often required when applying to schools, universities, or immigration services abroad.

This document is often requested by:

• Foreign schools and universities
• Visa and immigration authorities
• Education ministries abroad
• International student housing or welfare offices

Certification required: School documents must be certified by a UK solicitor or notary public before they can be apostilled. The solicitor will confirm the authenticity of the school’s stamp and signature.

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

Eligible for e-apostille: This document can be processed electronically if certified with a qualified electronic signature by a UK solicitor or notary.

Documents must be issued on official school letterhead and signed by an authorised school representative. Some countries may require translation or embassy legalisation after the apostille. Always check the destination country’s requirements in advance.
