Document retrieval in Miyagi
We obtain Japanese civil and corporate records for you, wherever you are. Available throughout Miyagi without you leaving Sendai or anywhere else in the prefecture.
Japanese civil records are held by the municipality where the family register is registered, not where you live, and many offices still accept only postal applications in Japanese with a domestic payment method. We apply on your behalf under a power of attorney, follow registers back through older handwritten entries when you need ancestry documents, and can send the original abroad by tracked courier together with the translation.
The regional Legal Affairs Bureau for all of Tohoku sits in Sendai, and the city's universities produce a steady flow of academic transcript translations.
We work with clients in Sendai, Ishinomaki and Osaki, and everywhere else in the prefecture.

How document retrieval works from Miyagi
Apostilles are issued only by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For documents from Miyagi we normally use the Tokyo (Kasumigaseki) 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 仙台法務局, the Legal Affairs Bureau with jurisdiction over Miyagi.
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.
