Portugal has been a Hague Apostille member for decades, so a single Apostille certificate is accepted without further embassy involvement.
Portuguese authorities sometimes require a certified translation alongside the Apostille. If your document isn't already in Portuguese, ask us about coordinating translation before certification.
Requirements can change and individual institutions sometimes ask for more than the standard Apostille. We'll confirm current requirements with you before we submit anything.
Every document type is different, and so is every fee: the cost depends on the type and number of documents you need Apostilled, not a flat rate. Contact us below with your document details for an accurate estimate.
Portugal is one of the longer-standing members of the Convention, with it in force there since February 4, 1969, per the Hague Conference's official status table, decades before Canada itself joined in January 2024.
Common reasons Canadians and Portuguese nationals need an Apostille for Portugal include citizenship-by-descent applications, property and inheritance matters, and marriage or civil registry filings.

Apostille fees depend on the type of document and how many you're submitting, so we don't post a flat price list. Send us the details below, including the type of document(s), how many, and that they're headed to Portugal, and we'll reply with an accurate quote.
Request an appointment for a specific time, or send an inquiry if you'd like to confirm requirements for your document first.
