Understand the next step
Obtain the receiving organisation’s exact instructions before booking. Explain the destination country and whether the request concerns witnessing, certification, notarisation or legalisation.
A JP, lawyer and notary do not necessarily perform interchangeable services; confirm before attending.
Provide the agreement, notice or receiving authority’s instructions. Explain the objective and any international connection.
Ask about comparable work, professional qualifications and coordination with technical advisers. For certification, confirm exactly what the receiving organisation requires.
Agree on the deliverable, whether a document, opinion, negotiation, regulatory response or representation. Record assumptions and exclusions.
Identify charges for technical reviews, reports, translations, certification and external professionals. These may sit outside a standard consultation.
Ask for a written scope identifying the work you are authorising, the person responsible and when costs will be reviewed. If you only want advice on one step, say so before the firm begins wider work.
Supply regulatory, transaction and overseas receiving dates. Ask about external processing time rather than treating an appointment as completion.
Directory guidance updated 19 September 2026. General information to help you prepare for a conversation with a professional; not advice about your individual matter. Check current requirements with the relevant authority.
Good to know
A certificate that authenticates a public document for use in countries that are party to the Hague Apostille Convention.
A notary certifies and witnesses documents that will be used overseas, such as powers of attorney, company documents and personal records. Some documents also need an apostille or legalisation after notarisation.
For routine matters a general practitioner is often fine. In specialist fields, experience with the specific regulator, industry and precedents usually saves time and cost.
