FAQ | notarisation for Japan

Is Swedish notarisation the same as a Japanese notary?

No. Here Notarius Publicus in Sweden attests a document that can then be apostilled for use in Japan. A Japanese notary stamps documents issued there.

Is apostille included in notarisation?

No. Notarisation is a separate step. For Japan we add apostille when the recipient requires it.
