Consular Legalization of Vietnamese Documents for Use in Finland

To ensure that Vietnamese documents are legally recognized and accepted for use in Finland, the full process of consular certification and legalization must be completed in accordance with the regulations of both countries.

Process for Legalizing Vietnamese Documents for Use in Finland
1. Consular certification by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam:
This is carried out at the Consular Department in Hanoi or the Department of External Relations in Ho Chi Minh City for English translations and the original documents (or certified true copies of the originals).

2. Consular legalization by the Embassy of Finland in Vietnam:
Once certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the documents must be legalized by the Embassy of Finland in Vietnam in order to be valid for use in Finland.

Requirements for Consular Legalization by the Embassy of Finland
According to the regulations of the Embassy of Finland in Vietnam, only documents that meet the following mandatory conditions will be accepted for legalization:

• The document must be translated into English and accompanied by the original (or a certified true copy of the original).

• The notarized translation and the certified true copy must be carried out by a state notary office (Department of Justice).

• Both the translation and the original (or certified true copy of the original) must be certified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam (Consular Department or Department of External Relations in Ho Chi Minh City).

Consular legalization services at the Embassy of Finland in Hanoi are appointment-based only.

If you authorize another person to act on your behalf, the authorized individual must present the following documents to the Embassy:

• A letter of authorization clearly stating the names of both the authorizing person and the authorized person
