When do you need legalization for Eritrea?
Swedish documents are not automatically valid in Eritrea. Authorities, employers and educational institutions in Eritrea require that documents are first verified by Swedish authorities and then legalized at Embassy of Eritrea in Stockholm before they can be used. The most common situations where we help our customers:
Work in Eritrea
Work permit applications, employment contracts and professional licenses for Eritrea typically require legalized education certificates and police clearance.
Studies in Eritrea
Universities in Eritrea demand legalized diplomas, transcripts and grade certificates as part of admission for international students.
Family matters
Marriage, family reunification, birth registration and adoption in Eritrea require legalized marriage certificates, birth certificates and personbevis.
Business & company
Setting up subsidiaries, signing contracts or registering trademarks in Eritrea requires legalized registreringsbevis, articles of association and powers of attorney.
Processing time for Eritrea
The complete legalization chain for Eritrea typically takes around 7-14 working days from the moment we receive your originals until they are ready for return delivery. The timeline is mainly determined by Embassy of Eritrea in Stockholm's own processing queue, which we cannot speed up directly.
What we can do is run every step in parallel where possible — notarized documents go to UD immediately, and as soon as UD is finished we submit them to Embassy of Eritrea in Stockholm the same day. You receive automatic status updates by email every time your case moves forward.
Need it faster? Contact us before ordering — for urgent Eritrea cases we can sometimes offer express handling at Embassy of Eritrea in Stockholm for an additional fee.
Cost for Eritrea
Legalization for Eritrea starts at 1200 SEK for a single private document. The price covers the entire chain — notarization at Notarius Publicus, verification by the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs and final legalization at Embassy of Eritrea in Stockholm.
Multi-document orders qualify for our bundle pricing and typically come out cheaper per document. Company documents from Bolagsverket and Skatteverket don't need notarization and follow a separate price list.
All prices include VAT and outlays paid on your behalf to authorities. There are no hidden fees — you see the final amount before payment.

Eritrea is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Documents intended for Eritrea must therefore go through the full legalization chain — first notarization (for private documents), then verification by the Swedish Ministry for Foreign Affairs, and finally legalization at Embassy of Eritrea in Stockholm in Stockholm.
Each step is mandatory. A document missing the embassy stamp will be rejected by authorities and employers in Eritrea, even if it has been notarized and verified by UD. The embassy is the only authority that can confirm the document's validity for use in Eritrea.
Many Eritrea-bound documents also require certified translation — either before or after the embassy step depending on the receiving authority. We coordinate translation and legalization in a single order so the steps happen in the correct sequence.
