ACRO Certificate
How To Legalise An ACRO Certificate
The legalisation process in the UK involves affixing an apostille (certificate) to a public document. Legalisation serves as official confirmation that the signature, stamp, or seal on the document is authentic.
Documents can be legalised if they are required to be recognised by an international foreign body.
One of the public documents that you can ask to legalise in the UK is a ACRO certificate.
We are here to help you legalise your ACRO certificate.
Why Would Someone Need Their ACRO Certificate Legalised

Requirements for Legalisation of an ACRO Certificate / Police Certificate
What format is required for the apostille:
Only the original document can be legalised that has a wet ink signature of an ACRO Officer. Solicitor-certified or photocopies are not accepted
Does the document require solicitor certification:
ACRO Certificates do not require solicitor certification as they are not accepted in this format and must be signed and issued by an ACRO officer.
You may have heard that two different apostille kinds exist:
• Paper-based – you must mail your paperwork.
•“E-Apostille” – You can upload documents as PDF files that a UK notary or solicitor has digitally signed to obtain an electronic apostille.
But note that ACRO certificates are not eligible for an e-Apostille.
