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

Typical requests from Liechtenstein concern banking, foundations and residence. EEA but not EU: civil-status documents need the apostille; German-language documents need no translation.

Authority fee: CHF 30.- per Apostille (apporox. € 20.00) (official fee, passed through 1:1 in your quote)

Where an apostille from Liechtenstein is not enough

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

Under Article 6 of the Convention Liechtenstein has designated: Regierungskanzlei der Fürstlichen Regierung; Regierungskanzlei der Fürstlichen Regierung. The notary reviews your application and we route the document to the right office.

In every other Contracting State – no objection is in force against Liechtenstein. Non-Convention countries (for example the UAE, Qatar, Egypt) still need consular legalisation.

The authority’s fee listed with the HCCH: CHF 30.- per Apostille (apporox. € 20.00). Official fees are passed through 1:1 and shown separately from Notaryzer’s service fee in your written quote; nothing is charged before you accept.

The apostille itself is standardised and accepted without translation. The document is in German; most recipients abroad want a sworn or certified translation into their language, which we add in the same order.

The Convention has been in force for Liechtenstein since September 17, 1972.
