Check the power of attorney 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 1979 treaty between the USSR and Italy on legal assistance in civil matters is in force between Russia and Italy: formally the document must be accepted without a stamp. In practice institutions in Italy 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 the apostille affixed to the original
The apostille on the power of attorney is affixed by Главное управление Минюста России по Новосибирской области (апостиль). The state fee is paid in advance and the receipt is attached to the application.

Have the translation done by a sworn translator in Italy
A Russian notarised translation will not be accepted in Italy: 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.
