Translation, apostille and interpreting in Fukui

Everything we do is available across Fukui, from Fukui to the smallest municipality, without anyone having to travel to an office.

Textile and eyewear manufacturers in Sabae export worldwide and need certified commercial documents.

Apostilles are issued only by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For documents from Fukui we normally use the Osaka counter, and postal applications are accepted from anywhere in Japan. Where a document has to be notarised first, the notary's signature is certified by 福井地方法務局, the Legal Affairs Bureau with jurisdiction over Fukui.

We work with clients in Fukui and Sabae, and everywhere else in the prefecture.

Documents issued in Fukui

Family registers, residence certificates and seal registration certificates are issued by the city, town or village office — in Fukui and in every other municipality in Fukui. Company registry extracts and real estate records come from 福井地方法務局 or one of its branch offices. We can obtain any of these on your behalf under a power of attorney, then translate and legalise them in the same run.

Interpreting in Fukui

Interpreters travel to appointments anywhere in Fukui, including the regional immigration office, city halls, notary offices, hospitals and company sites. For short appointments, video or telephone interpreting is usually cheaper and can be arranged at shorter notice.

Common questions

Do I need to visit an office in Fukui?
No. We collect documents by courier anywhere in Fukui and return them the same way, so the whole job runs by email and post. Only interpreting requires someone to be present, and that can often be done by video.
Which apostille counter applies to documents from Fukui?
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs issues every apostille in Japan, over two counters: Kasumigaseki in Tokyo and the Osaka branch office. Documents from Fukui normally go through Osaka. Postal applications are accepted from anywhere in the country, and for prefectures at a distance that is usually what we do.
Can you obtain a family register from a municipality in Fukui?
Yes. Municipal offices in Fukui accept postal applications with a power of attorney, a copy of your identification and Japanese postal payment, which is the part most applicants abroad get stuck on. We handle the application, pay the fee and receive the document for you.
