Legalization guidelines

Your documents and their translations require full legalization because no relevant bilateral agreements are currently in place with the issuing country.

Please note:

• The legalization must be certified on the original document

• After the legalization process in the issuing country, your documents must also be legalized by the appropriate Austrian representative authority

Required procedure:

1. Legalization by the appropriate government ministry (ministry of education) in Bangladesh

2. Additional legalization by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bangladesh

3. Completion of the legalization process by the appropriate Austrian embassy  in New Delhi

Your documents must be inspected for factual accuracy by the Austrian embassy in New Delhi. For further information on this mandatory inspection, please contact:
