›Can I prepare everything myself?
You can. The work is the sequencing: 5 steps, each at a different counter with its own opening hours, and a document accepted at one step can still be rejected at the next. If you would rather not manage that, send us the set once and our team runs the whole chain and reports at each step.
›Do you only process documents, or do you advise as well?
Both. Our team has worked on document certification for more than 15 years, and most cases are decided before the first counter visit: which record to request, which office issues it, what order the certifications go in, and whether a step is needed at all. We review your case and tell you what your file is missing before you commit to anything.
›How long does it take?
Typical working time is 3–5 business days when register documents are ready / 1–2 weeks including MFA legalisation / 2–3 weeks including submission to the destination authority / dependent on the DBD issuance cycle, excluding the receiving authority's own queue, which we cannot control and never guarantee. We confirm the realistic range for your case after seeing the actual document set.
