Consular legalization for documents of Norway

Norway is a member of the Hague Convention, while Vietnam is currently not a member of this Convention. Therefore, documents issued in Norway cannot be used legally in Vietnam by Apostille certification alone—they must go through the full consular legalization process.

1. Document Authentication System in Norway

Norway applies two systems of document authentication, depending on the country in which the documents will be used:

• Apostille Stamp and Seal:
  For documents intended for use in Hague Convention member countries.
• Consular Legalization Stamp and Seal:
  For documents intended for use in countries not party to the Hague Convention, including Vietnam.

2. Legalization Process for Norway Documents for Use in Vietnam

To have Norway documents legally recognized and accepted in Vietnam, two key steps must be completed:

• Consular Certification by a Competent Authority in Norway
  This step confirms the legal validity of the documents in Norway. (Apostille is not applicable in this case.)
• Consular Legalization at the Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate in Norway
  After being certified in Norway, the documents must be further legalized by a Vietnamese diplomatic mission in Norway to be valid for use in Vietnam.
