LEGALISATION AND APOSTILLE REQUIREMENTS
For documents intended for use in the Bahamas, legalisation is generally not required if the document has been signed or authenticated by a UK notary public, as provided under section 102(1)(a) of the Bahamian Evidence Act 1996. In most cases, an Apostille is not necessary for UK documents, but requirements may vary depending on the specific situation and the receiving party’s instructions. It is recommended to confirm the exact legalisation requirements with the relevant local authority to avoid any issues.
The Bahamas High Commission in London can attest documents originating from the Bahamas, provided they have first been authenticated by the Bahamian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, particularly when the documents are intended for use in other countries such as the UAE.
