Why is consular legalization of the Republic of Cyprus necessary?
Although the Republic of Cyprus is a member of the Hague Convention, Vietnam has not yet joined this convention. This means that when Vietnamese documents are issued and intended for use in Cyprus, you will need to complete the consular legalization procedure at the Cypriot diplomatic mission in Vietnam.
Documents from Vietnam must also be authenticated by the Vietnamese Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Foreign Affairs before they can be used in Cyprus and other countries.

Consular legalization procedure for Republic of Cyprus documents intended for use in Vietnam
Step 1: Prepare Documents
First, you need to identify the type of document that requires legalization and ensure that your document is valid, intact, and free from tears, erasures, or any signs of alteration.
In addition, you should also prepare notarized copies of the original documents through the competent authorities in the Republic of Cyprus (usually a Notary Public or equivalent authorities).
If the documents are not written in English or Vietnamese, you need to translate them into one of these languages and notarize the translation. However, this can be done after completing the steps in Cyprus and does not need to be done at the very beginning.
Step 2: Consular Legalization in the Republic of Cyprus
Since there is currently no Vietnamese Embassy or Consulate in the Republic of Cyprus, you can complete the consular legalization of documents from Cyprus through a Vietnamese Embassy in a third country, such as the Vietnamese Embassy in Athens, Greece:
- Address: 50 Yakinthon, P. Psyko, Athens 154-52
- Phone: +30-210-6128 733 ; 6753 080
- Fax: +30-210-6128 734
- E-mail: vnemb.gr@mofa.gov.vn
- Working Hours: Monday to Friday, 09:00 – 12:00
May vary depending on the procedure, usually takes 1–3 weeks
Step 3: Translation and Notarization (If Needed) in Vietnam
If the documents are not written in Vietnamese, you will need to translate them into Vietnamese at reputable translation companies.
Take the translated documents to the District/County Justice Department or a Notary Office to notarize the translation.
Step 4: Submit Documents to the Competent Authority in Vietnam (If Needed)
In many cases, documents that have been authenticated in Cyprus are sufficient for use in Vietnam without any additional legalization.
However, some authorities or organizations in Vietnam may require further confirmation by a competent Vietnamese authority. Depending on the type of document and its intended use, you may need to submit your documents to the Consular Department – Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Vietnam or the local Department of Foreign Affairs for additional authentication.
Step 5: Use Documents in Vietnam
After completing the above steps, your documents have been legalized and can be legally used in Vietnam.
