Apostille and consular legalization of the TEFL/TESOL certificate

Apostille and consular legalization of the TEFL/TESOL certificate

TEFL/TESOL certification courses are internationally recognized by educational institutions around the world. That is why they are chosen by many English teachers who are interested in professional development and work abroad. If we consider the issue of obtaining a work visa and legal work in another country, then obtaining the original certificate is only half the journey.

The employer must be confident in the honesty and professionalism of the candidate. It is in this case that the apostille of the document is required.

What is an apostille?

In other words, an apostille is a stamp that is placed on a copy or original of documents and gives them legal force for presentation in countries that recognize this form of legalization. But before carrying out this procedure, it is required to complete the TEFL / TESOL courses, and order the original certificate.

What does TEFL/TESOL certificate apostille include?

Upon completion of the course and a request for the issuance of a supporting document, you will also receive a generated PDF version of the certificate. Delivery of the original will need to be expected from the UK. Upon receipt, you can easily verify the authenticity of the document. The paper version of the certificate has a hologram and a QR code, with which the recipient or employer can verify the data. To do this, just scan the QR code and enter the unique certificate code on this page. The check will immediately show the data of the course graduate, which matches the information indicated on the certificate. Verification of personal data is considered a standard procedure. The document also indicates the grade for the course, taking into account the completed tasks, the date of receipt and relief printing.

Features of consular legalization for different countries

After receiving the original certificate, it is possible to order the legalization of the certificate, if it is necessary to obtain a work visa or is one of the requirements of the employer. Apostille may differ depending on the country, but since this service is provided by professionals, there is nothing to worry about. For example, for Thailand, Vietnam and China, the legal confirmation procedure is different from other countries. In this case, we will describe the procedure for a Vietnamese employer. It was necessary to obtain an apostille from a notary from the UK and the Vietnamese Embassy in London. Legalization is carried out on a copy of the document so that the original remains in good condition. Characteristic marks that everything is done correctly are a seal and a mark from a notary on the front side of the certificate, and 2 apostilles in the form of separate forms on the reverse side, one of which has a stamp of the Vietnamese Consul.
