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

Where an apostille from Kazakhstan is not enough

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