Legalization of documents

Since August 1, 2011 the Kyrgyz Republic has acceded to the 1961 Hague Convention abolishing the requirement of foreign official documents legalization, which are parties to this Convention.

Since accession to this Convention, French documents apostilled by the relevant authorities of the French Republic are recognized on the territory of the Kyrgyz Republic without additional certification by the Embassy, as France is also a party to the above mentioned Convention.

If you need legalization of a French document for use in Kyrgyzstan, you should contact the office where the document was issued for the Apostille procedure.
