Apostille and legalisation in Miyazaki

Apostilles from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, plus embassy and consulate legalisation. Available throughout Miyazaki without you leaving Miyazaki or anywhere else in the prefecture.

Japan is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so a document issued by a Japanese public authority usually needs a single apostille from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to be valid abroad. Where the destination country is outside the convention, the document instead needs an authentication from the Ministry followed by legalisation at that country's embassy or consulate in Japan. We determine which route applies, prepare any notarisation required first, and run the document through each counter on your behalf.

Agriculture and food exports, with documents handled by post across the prefecture.

We work with clients in Miyazaki and Miyakonojo, and everywhere else in the prefecture.

Documents we handle

  • Apostille on public documents issued in Japan
  • Authentication (koin kakunin) for non-convention countries
  • Consular legalisation at embassies in Tokyo
  • Notarisation at a Japanese notary office for private documents
  • Legal Affairs Bureau certification of the notary's signature

Requirements differ by receiving authority and change over time. We confirm the current requirement with the destination authority before we start.

How apostille and legalisation works from Miyazaki

Apostilles are issued only by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For documents from Miyazaki 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 宮崎地方法務局, the Legal Affairs Bureau with jurisdiction over Miyazaki.

You send scans for the quote, post or courier the originals if they are needed, and we return everything together once the last stamp is on the file.
