Global Apostille Canada / Destinations / Morocco

Morocco: apostille and legalization from Canada

Morocco is a party to the Apostille Convention, so a single Canadian apostille is enough and there is no consular step. Files from Montreal are mostly civil-status documents and property matters: a succession, a sale handled by a relative, a divorce judgment to be recorded.

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 only.

The Hague Apostille Convention applies to this destination (Morocco). A single apostille from the Canadian competent authority is enough, with no embassy stage.

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. Not required

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.

Where is your document from?

The authority that issues the apostille depends on the province the document was issued in, not on where you live.
