Jordan: apostille and legalization from Canada

Jordan is not a party to the Apostille Convention. Documents going there need the Canadian apostille and then consular legalization, whether they are academic records for a university place, civil-status documents for a family file, or a power of attorney for someone acting on your behalf in Amman.

The route your document takes

Four stations. Which of them your file actually passes through depends on this destination and on the document itself.

Apostille, then consular legalization.

The Hague Apostille Convention does not apply to this destination (Jordan). After authentication, the document must be legalized at that country's embassy or consulate. We handle that stage for you.

Translation Certified translation into the language your destination requires. Depends on your document
Notarization A notary or commissioner certifies the copy, the signature or the translator's affidavit. Depends on your document
Apostille The competent Canadian authority issues the apostille certificate. Always
Legalization Embassy or consular stamp, for destinations outside the Hague Convention. Always

This is a preliminary route, not a legal opinion. Convention membership and embassy requirements change; we confirm the exact chain for your file in writing before any work starts.

What people usually send

The documents we most often prepare for this destination. If yours is not here, it is almost certainly still something we handle.

Worth knowing

Jordanian ministries and universities usually want the original document rather than a certified copy of it. Ask the receiving office which form it expects before sending anything, because it changes what can be apostilled at all.
