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

Apostille in Vietnam: questions
Under Article 6 of the Convention Vietnam has designated: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Socialist Republic of Viet Nam:; 1. The Consular Department (Headquarters in Hanoi);; 2. Ho Chi Minh City’s Department for External Relations.. The notary reviews your application and we route the document to the right office.
In all Contracting States except Austria, Czechia, and Germany: an Article 12 objection is in force between them, so documents for these states need consular legalisation instead. Non-Convention countries (for example the UAE, Qatar, Egypt) always need legalisation.
The authority’s fee listed with the HCCH: E-Register:. 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 Vietnamese; 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 Vietnam since September 11, 2026.
