FAQ | notarisation for Nigeria

Is Swedish notarisation the same as a Nigerian notary public?
No. Here Notarius Publicus in Sweden attests a document that can then be legalised for use in Nigeria. A Nigerian notary stamps documents issued there.
Is the embassy stamp included in notarisation?
No. Notarisation is a separate step. For Nigeria we add MFA and the embassy when the recipient requires legalisation.
