We provide fast, secure, and affordable legalization services that simplify the process—from local notarization to final consulate legalization—ensuring your documents are fully authenticated and ready for use in Vietnam. Serving clients across all 50 U.S. states, we take the hassle out of the legalization process, providing peace of mind and allowing you to focus on what matters most.

Document legalization for Vietnam is not just a formality; it’s a necessity. Vietnam mandates that all foreign documents used for official purposes be authenticated and legalized before government agencies, educational institutions, or businesses can accept them. Whether you plan to study, work, start a business, or manage personal affairs in Vietnam, your documents must go through a rigorous legalization process to be recognized as genuine.
Document legalization is not just about meeting requirements but protecting you. It shields you from potential legal issues, ensures your qualifications and credentials are accepted abroad, and streamlines cross-border transactions. Without proper legalization, your documents may be rejected, causing significant delays and complications in your personal or professional plans.
At My Visa and Apostille Services, we manage the entire legalization process, so you don’t have to navigate complex procedures alone. Our four-step process ensures your documents are fully authenticated for use in Vietnam. Additionally, we offer an optional FBI Identity History Report service to provide an extra layer of verification for your details, ensuring the highest security and accuracy.
The first step in our process is local notarization. A local notary public will witness your signature and affix their official seal for general documents, such as university degrees or personal certificates. This notarization confirms the authenticity of your document on a local level.
Need help determining if your document requires notarization?
Once your documents have been notarized, they are submitted for authentication by the Secretary of State in the issuing state. This step verifies that the notary’s signature and seal are genuine and that the document complies with state standards.
For state-specific requirements
After state authentication, your documents are submitted to the U.S. Department of State for federal authentication. This national-level verification is essential for ensuring that your documents are recognized for international use.
The final step in our process is for the Vietnamese Consulate to legalize your documents. This step ensures that your documents meet all legal requirements for use in Vietnam. The Vietnamese Consulate reviews your fully authenticated documents and affixes their seal, officially recognizing them as authentic and valid for academic, business, legal, or personal use in Vietnam.

To further ensure the integrity and security of your application, we offer an optional FBI Identity History Report service. This report performs a thorough background check, verifying your identity and confirming that all personal details in your documents are accurate. Our comprehensive verification process ensures that your application is credible and reduces the likelihood of delays or issues during consulate review, providing you with a sense of security and confidence.
The FBI Identity History Report comprehensively reviews your identity, ensuring no discrepancies and enhancing your application's credibility.
By including this report, your application gains an additional layer of credibility, reducing the likelihood of delays or issues during consulate review.
We recommend ordering the FBI Identity History Report as soon as you have prepared your primary documents. Early verification is key to ensuring a smooth legalization process.
Our streamlined process removes the complexity of document legalization, allowing you to focus on your business, legal, or personal needs. Here’s how we do it:

After state authentication, your documents are submitted to the U.S. Department of State for federal authentication.
This provides national-level verification, making your documents acceptable for international use.

The final stage is submitting your documents to the Vietnamese Consulate, where they are legalized for use in Vietnam.
