DOCUMENTS
Dominican Republic is a signature to the Hague Convention and there is no need for shipping documents to be legalized.
Other documents that need legal recognition would be certified with an Apostille, which will allow them to be accepted for legal use in Dominican Republic.
PROCEDURE
Please complete the attached order form and send along with your document to WCS. In order to obtain legalization, WCS will need the original document. This should be a signed, notarized or a State issued Document.
Once received we will obtain the Apostille usually within one day and return to you by your desired courier.
Customers should include their own return airway bill issued by UPS or FedEx with the document, along with a check or credit card information for payment of legalization fees. For individual orders please complete your credit card number on the form.
