Questions Answered
Important
The AMP Advogado office only apostille: birth certificate, marriage certificate, death certificate, divorce certificate and criminal record. We do not apostulate any other documents. Please note that we are in Portugal and we only apostille documents issued in Portugal.
The document is apostilled within 2 business days, counting from the date on which the amount “entered” the office account (business hours). However, we do not receive any amount before confirming whether the document is viable for apostille.
The interested party must send a copy of the document, so that the office can confirm whether it is viable for apostille (if there is no copy, we will need to issue it). After analyzing the document, we inform you of the expense of: office fees + fee charged by the Portuguese government. The shipping cost will only be calculated after the document has been apostille).
The delay is related to distance. We do booklets for customers on all continents. The delay usually varies according to the country's proximity to Portugal. Furthermore, cities further away from large centers tend to have a longer period of time to receive the document. After the apostille, we calculate shipping and know the expected delivery date.
AMP Advogado is based in Portugal and does not apostulate documents from other countries. The document can only be apostilled in the country that issued it. Therefore, if the document was issued in Brazil, it must be apostilled in Brazil. If it was issued in Spain, it must be apostilled in Spain, etc. As we are in Portugal, we only apostille documents issued in Portugal.
The total cost of apostille involves: office fees + fee charged by the Portuguese government and the cost of sending the document to the client. Therefore, the apostille service has a variable price, depending on the document and the customer's address.
Shipping calculation is done after apostille. This calculation considers the distance between the sender and the recipient, as well as the weight and delivery date. There may also be variations depending on the shipping time. Our office only ships through DHL. Our office has a reduced value contract for shipping. Therefore, the customer will pay a lower amount to receive the document.
It is not possible to apostille a copy of a document. We need to issue a duplicate and then apostille it. It is also possible to issue with an access code. If you have an access code, please inform the office. In this case, we will be able to print the document and apostille it.
The access code is used to issue documents. With the access code from a seat or a criminal certificate, we can print a copy of the document and apostille it.
