Where in the world can notarized documents be used?

The documents on which you have your signature notarized at our partner notaries' offices can be used almost anywhere in the world.

The notarization of your signature is carried out by a partner notary from Austria. The documents can be used in Austria without further ado.

Austria has bilateral agreements with many European states according to which notarially certified documents are to be accepted in the respective other country without apostille or other formality. These are: Germany, Belgium, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Finland, France, Italy, Croatia, Liechtenstein, Macedonia, Montenegro, Norway, Poland, Sweden, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Czech Republic, Turkey, Hungary.

You will need an apostille for use in other countries. We will be happy to assist you in obtaining an apostille. This takes around 24 hours after you have signed online with a partner notary. Please do not hesitate to contact us.

If the deed is to be used outside Austria, we recommend that you discuss this procedure with the recipient of the deed or with your legal advisor. We cannot guarantee that deeds will be accepted.
