Check the notarised copy 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.
Under the treaty no legalisation is required
The treaty of 19 January 1984 between the USSR and Cyprus on legal assistance in civil and criminal matters is in force between Russia and Cyprus: formally the document must be accepted without a stamp. In practice institutions in Cyprus ask for an apostille, and an apostille is always accepted. The route is therefore built with one; if the receiving institution confirms in writing that no stamp is needed, the apostille step can be skipped.

Have a notarised copy made
The notary certifies that the copy is a true copy. The apostille is then affixed by the Ministry of Justice to the notary's signature, so the original stays with you.

Have the notarised copy apostilled by the Ministry of Justice
The territorial body of the Ministry of Justice certifies the notary's signature. This is the only route for documents that cannot be apostilled directly, and for documents from another region where the destination country accepts an apostille on a copy.

Have the translation done by a sworn translator in Cyprus
A Russian notarised translation will not be accepted in Cyprus: you need a translator sworn in the destination country. The document is translated together with the apostille, so this step comes last.
This step is carried out in the destination country. We neither sell it nor charge for it.
