Consular legalization in Atauro
Legalization of documents through the consulate of the country where they will be used. Atauro is the island north of Dili that became a municipality in its own right in 2022.
When a document must be used in a country that does not accept apostilles, it goes through a chain of authentications — usually the issuing authority, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and then the consulate of the destination country. We prepare the file, follow each step and return the fully legalized document.
