The higher education diploma or other document confirming completion of higher education has to be cerified through apostille or legalization. If the document was issued by a Polish higher education institution, the legalization/apostille is not needed.
1. Apostille
If a country in which a given document was issued is a party to the Convention Abolishing the Requirement of Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents, concluded in the Hague, 5 October 1961, the document’s legalisation is replaced by an Apostille certificate attached to it. The list of countries – parties to the Convention and the institutions authorised to issue the Apostille is available here.
2. Legalisation
Legalisation is the certification of a document’s formal conformity with the law binding in the place of its issue or of the authenticity of the seals and signatures placed on the document. If a country in which a given document was issued is not a party to the Hague Convention, the document’s legalisation remains the responsibility of the Polish consular office in that country.
