Why is it necessary to consularly legalize in Lithuania?
Lithuania is a member of the Hague Convention. Accordingly, documents issued by Lithuania will be legally recognized and usable in all Hague Convention member countries once they have been apostilled.
However, Vietnam and many other countries have not joined this Convention. Therefore, documents from Lithuania that need to be recognized in Vietnam must go through the consular legalization process. Specifically:
- Certification by the Lithuanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs: This step certifies the legality of the document in the issuing country.
- Certification by the Vietnamese Embassy in Lithuania: This is the final step to ensure that the document can be legally used in Vietnam.
Consular legalization is an important requirement in cross-border transactions, administrative procedures, and legal matters, helping to minimize risks and ensure transparency. To carry out this complex process, using a full-service consular legalization service from reputable providers will save you time, effort, and ensure accurate results.
Which documents are typically consularly legalized in Lithuania?
Below are common types of documents that typically require consular legalization in Lithuania:
- Birth certificate of Lithuanian citizens.
- Certificates of marital status (single, married, divorced).
- Diplomas and graduation certificates from schools or universities in Lithuania.
- Transcripts and study verification documents.
- Business registration certificates of Lithuanian companies.
- Contracts and commercial cooperation documents with Vietnamese partners.
- Health certificates of Lithuanian citizens.
- Health status certificates for study or work purposes.
- Visas and passports.

Consular legalization is not only a mandatory requirement for many administrative procedures but also ensures transparency and legality when using foreign documents in Vietnam.

Procedures for consular legalization of Lithuanian documents for use in Vietnam
The process of consular legalization for Lithuanian documents to be legally used in Vietnam includes the following specific steps:
Step 1: Prepare Original Documents and Copies
First, you need to clearly identify the type of documents that require legalization. It is essential that the original documents are valid, still effective, and not altered, erased, or damaged. Then, proceed to obtain certified true copies of the originals at the competent authorities in Lithuania.
Step 2: Notarized Translation (If Needed)
If the original documents are issued in a language other than Vietnamese or English, you will need to have them translated and notarized. Once the translation is completed, the translated version must be notarized by a competent authority, such as a notary office in Lithuania or a diplomatic mission of Vietnam in Lithuania.
Step 3: Apostille Certification in Lithuania
Lithuania is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, which abolishes the requirement of consular legalization for foreign public documents. Therefore, your documents must first be certified with an Apostille in Lithuania before being used in Vietnam.
However, since Vietnam is not a member of the Hague Convention, documents with Apostille certification still require consular legalization at the Vietnamese diplomatic mission.
