Tanzania is not a contracting party to the Hague Apostille Convention. Documents for Tanzania therefore go through consular legalisation: the competent authority and the foreign ministry of the issuing country certify the document, and the Tanzania embassy or consulate legalises it.

Consular legalisation via the Tanzanian Embassy.

Typical requests for Tanzania concern business, NGO work and residence. Authorities in Tanzania generally expect documents in Swahili or English; where a document is not bilingual, we add a sworn translation, and for several countries the translator’s signature is apostilled as well. English documents are accepted.

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 Tanzania.

    Apostille for Tanzania: questions

    No – Tanzania is not party to the Hague Apostille Convention. Documents are legalised through the issuing country’s foreign ministry and the Tanzania embassy or consulate instead.

    Recipients in Tanzania generally expect Swahili or English. We work with sworn or certified translators for these languages and know when the translator’s signature must be apostilled as well.
