Check the divorce 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.

Have the apostille affixed to the original
The apostille on the divorce 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.

Have the translation certified by a notary in Ukraine
There are no sworn translators in Ukraine: the accuracy of a translation is certified there by a notary. A Russian notarised translation will not do for that — the document is translated together with the apostille, so the translation comes last and is made locally.
This step is carried out in the destination country. We neither sell it nor charge for it.
Have it done for you
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.
