Iran is not a contracting party to the Hague Apostille Convention. Documents for Iran therefore go through consular legalisation: the competent authority and the foreign ministry of the issuing country certify the document, and the Iran embassy or consulate legalises it.
Foreign documents for Iran are certified by the issuing authority or a notary, authenticated by the foreign ministry of the issuing country and legalised by the Iranian embassy or consulate there. Iranian authorities and notaries require Persian translations, typically by an official translator in Iran or a sworn translator in the issuing country.
Iranian documents for use abroad are usually translated by an official translator in Iran, certified by the Iranian judiciary and Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and then legalised by the embassy of the destination country. Iran does not issue apostilles, so this applies even for Convention countries.
Typical cases are powers of attorney and affidavits for property, inheritance and family matters in Iran, and degrees and civil-status documents for study, work or marriage abroad.
Notaryzer handles it end to end: the notary reviews your application, we organise the apostille or legalisation in the issuing country, arrange the translation and ship the result to you or directly to the recipient in Iran.
- Ask the Iranian recipient whether a translation made outside Iran is accepted
- Powers of attorney are usually signed before a notary and then legalised – check the required wording first
- Plan the embassy legalisation in the country that issued the document
