Certification and Legalisation:

For the recognition in Bulgaria of a public document issued by a foreign country and vice versa, for a Bulgarian public document to be recognized in another country, documents must be translated and provided with an “Apostille”, pursuant to the Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents done at the Hague on October 5, 1961, to which both Bulgaria and Argentina are signatories. The translation must be made by a sworn translator and certification of his/her signature needs to be made.

In Bulgaria, an “Apostille” is placed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Justice, in Argentina – by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, International Trade and Religious Affairs (Telephone: +54 11 4819 7000, int. 7502) and the Federal Council of Notaries in Argentine (www.cfna.org.ar)
