Grampian Translation Services Ltd has announced the launch of a local apostille and legalisation handling service for documents requiring authentication by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), including access to the next-working-day apostille service.
The Aberdeen-based company is registered with the FCDO as an approved provider, enabling documents to be submitted through the premium next-day apostille route where required.
A Local Alternative for Document Legalisation
The new service allows individuals, solicitors and businesses across Aberdeen and the North East of Scotland to submit documents locally, avoiding the delays and inconvenience often associated with sending documents to processing agents in the south of England.
Documents requiring legalisation for international use – including legal, academic, immigration and commercial documentation – can now be handled entirely through Grampian Translation Services, which manages the process from preparation and submission to secure return of the completed documents.
The service also supports clients whose documents require preliminary certification, such as solicitor certification or notarisation, before submission to the FCDO for apostille.
Dr Eltijani Elyas, chief operating officer of Grampian Translation Services Ltd, said: “The availability of a local apostille handling service provides a practical solution for individuals and organisations in the North East who require documents to be legalised quickly for international use. By managing the submission process directly with the FCDO, the company is able to help clients avoid delays and ensure documents are prepared correctly before submission.”
Grampian Translation Services manages the full apostille process on behalf of clients, providing secure handling, clear communication throughout the process and flexible submission options including local drop-off and postal services.
