  1. 1

    Check the change-of-name certificate before you apply

    The stamp is only affixed to an original of the established form and in good condition. A laminated document, a Soviet-era form or one with corrections will not be apostilled: you need a duplicate first.

  2. 2

    Have the apostille affixed to the original

    State fee USD 30 source1–5 working days no more than 5 working days under the civil registry regulations; where there is no doubt about authenticity, some offices affix the apostille the same day

    The apostille on the change-of-name certificate is affixed by the civil registry authority of the region of the Russian Federation where the civil status record was made. The state fee is paid in advance and the receipt is attached to the application.

    Translation: check what Grenada requires first

    We have not confirmed from an official source who has to translate the document, so we do not sell this step blind. Ask the receiving institution before you pay: if a Russian notarised translation is acceptable, we will do it together with the apostille; if a translator or notary in the destination country is required, the translation is made there and after the apostille.

    This step is carried out in the destination country. We neither sell it nor charge for it.

A CDEK courier collects the document anywhere in Russia and returns it with the apostille or legalisation. You pay step by step once a manager has confirmed the scope and the price.
