Legalisation of Dutch and New Zealand documents |

Please send the following items:
- The document(s) for Apostille
Please note that original documents are required. If your birth or marriage certificate does not have the seal of the Registrar of Births, Deaths and Marriages (or Registrar-General on older documents) you will need to purchase new documents. See www.dia.govt.nz (services> Births Deaths and Marriages) for information on how to order new certificates.
- A cheque for the Department of Internal Affairs fee
The fee is NZD $32.00 per document set. A set is one or more documents issued by the same authority. For example, Birth and Marriage Certificates issued by the Registrar of Births Deaths and Marriages can be issued as one set. However, if one of the documents has the seal of the Registrar General, this will need to be Apostilled as a separate set. The Citizenship Certificate, which has a different issuing authority, must also be issued with a separate Apostille. The cost of additional Apostille is $15.
- A stamped self-addressed envelope or courier pack
- Contact details such as phone number and email address
