Ukraine Consulate
Legalization
General Information
Quite
often, American citizens and business persons require
that certain documents be "legalized"
so that they can be accepted in Ukraine. The procedures
to be followed depend on the nature of the documents
and are similar to the requirements of all other
governments throughout the world.
Requirements
After a document has been authenticated
by the US Department of State, it may then be submitted
to the Ukrainian Consular Office for "authentication."
The Consular Office legalizes only those documents,
which are duly authenticated by the relevant US
authorities.
Every document such as Power of Attorney submitted
to the Consular Office for legalization must be
accompanied by one clear photocopy of each page
(except for adoption dossiers).
In-person notarization
If
the document is in the Ukrainian language and merely
requires notarization, it may be signed by the signatory
person before Ukrainian Consular Officer at the
Consular Office who will thereafter notarize it.
The fees for such notarization are $40 dollars per
document. This procedure is known as the "notarization"
process and is substantially similar to the procedures
followed here in the United States.
Fee Schedule
Ukraine
Consulate fees:
$60 for legalization of one document to be completed
within nine business days not counting the business
day of its receipt by the Consular Office.
$120 if the document deals with ownership of apartments
or other "realty" etc. or document that
is necessary for the registration of the appointment
of an agent for foreign juridical persons (legal
entities) or a joint venture involving the participation
of a foreign juridical person or any document that
relates to any kind of business activity with Ukraine.
For the expedited service (3 business day processing
only) the consular fees are doubled.
