An apostille is enough

Both countries are party to the 1961 Hague Convention. The apostille is affixed once to the original and the document is valid in the destination country; no consulate visit is needed. If the document is translated, a notary certifies the translation — that is the second authority.

Steps

  1. 01Provincial governorate (Valilik) · Justice Commission of the ordinary courts (Adli Yargı Adalet Komisyonu) affixes the apostille to the ORIGINAL document.
  2. 02The document is translated into the language of the destination country and a notary certifies the translation.

Translation before or after?

General rule: certificate first, translation after. The apostille goes onto the ORIGINAL; the translation is then made and notarised separately. Some consulates want the reverse — the institution receiving your document states the order it requires.
