An apostille can only be issued in the country where the document was issued. For a document from Hungary that means Hungary’s designated authority; no other country can apostille it. We coordinate the submission in Hungary, the notary reviews your application first, and the document is returned with the apostille – by courier or, where Hungary issues electronic apostilles, as a verified PDF.

Typical requests from Hungary concern company matters, property and employment. EU member: civil-status documents are exempt; notarial and company documents need the apostille and an OFFI-certified Hungarian translation.

Authority fee: The issuance of Apostille by the Ministry of Justice is provided free of charge. (official fee, passed through 1:1 in your quote)

Where an apostille from Hungary is not enough

No Contracting State has an objection in force against Hungary: the apostille is accepted in every other Convention country. Non-Convention countries (UAE, Qatar, Egypt, Iraq …) still require consular legalisation.
