If your destination country is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, a UK apostille from the FCDO is all your document needs — no embassy stage, no further legalisation. If it isn’t a member, the embassy route applies instead, and we handle that too.

This page covers both, in two lists. The first is every one of the Convention’s 130 contracting parties, verified against the official HCCH status table.

The second is the countries that haven’t joined, where embassy attestation is still required after the FCDO step. Each entry gives you the route verdict, the country’s London embassy details, and a link to its full legalisation guide.
