Consular legalisation for Sudan South and North

Notarisation of documents for South Sudan

LEGALISATION AND APOSTILLE REQUIREMENTS

For documents to be used in South Sudan, they must first be legalised with an Apostille from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), then submitted to the Consulate of the Republic of South Sudan for further attestation. A photocopy of each document is required upon submission. The Consulate in London also accepts documents issued in the Republic of Ireland, provided they have been legalised by the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs. Documents from other countries are not accepted. When legalising copies of academic documents, the originals must be presented and will be returned with the legalised copies.

TIME AND FEES

The consular fee is £20 per private document, including educational certificates, and £65 per commercial document. Processing typically takes 3 to 4 working days.

Notarisation of documents for North Sudan

LEGALISATION AND APOSTILLE REQUIREMENTS

For documents to be used in Sudan (North), they must first be legalised with an Apostille from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), followed by further attestation at the Sudanese Consulate. Commercial documents require additional attestation by the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) and the Arab-British Chamber of Commerce (ABCC) before consular submission. The Consulate in London also handles documents issued in the Republic of Ireland, provided they have been pre-legalised by the Irish Department of Foreign Affairs. Foreign documents from other jurisdictions are generally rejected. Documents may be submitted as a securely bound bundle (ribbon and seal), though acceptance is at the Consulate’s discretion based on document type. For private documents, one photocopy is required; commercial documents require three photocopies.

TIME AND FEES

The consular fee is £30–£45 per private document and £218.50 per commercial document (inclusive of LCCI and ABCC fees).

Payment can be made via cash or postal order for direct Consulate submissions, or card/cheque/bank transfer for submissions through LCCI/ABCC. The Consulate operates from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm.
