Medical Letters Legalization & Apostille Services For International Use
A Medical Letter is a formal document issued by a healthcare provider or medical institution that outlines an individual's health status, medical condition, or fitness for a specific purpose, such as travel, employment, or immigration. This document is often required for visa applications, international employment, medical treatments abroad, or immigration procedures.

What is Medical Letter Legalization & Apostille?
For Arab Countries (Legalization Process)
For a Medical Letter to be valid in an Arab country, it typically needs to undergo the following legalization process:
- Notarization: The Medical Letter must first be notarized by a U.S. notary public to authenticate the document.
- U.S. Arab Chamber of Commerce Stamp: After notarization, the document is certified with the U.S. Arab Chamber stamp, confirming its authenticity for use in Arab countries.
- Embassy Legalization: The final step is submitting the notarized Medical Letter to the relevant Embassy or Consular office of the destination country for Embassy legalization. This step ensures the document will be legally recognized by the authorities in the destination country.
For Non-Arab Countries (Apostille Process)
For non-Arab countries that are members of the Hague Convention, an Apostille is required to validate the Medical Letter for international use. This certification ensures that the document is legally recognized in all countries that accept Apostilles under the Hague Convention.
- Notarization: The Medical Letter must first be notarized by a U.S. notary public to confirm its authenticity.
- Apostille: Once notarized, the document is certified by the U.S. Secretary of State, placing an Apostille on the Medical Letter. This certification ensures the Medical Letter is valid for use in any country that is a signatory to the Hague Convention.
Why Legalization or Apostille is Important
For Arab Countries (Legalization)
- Recognition by Foreign Authorities: The legalization process ensures that the Medical Letter will be accepted for medical treatment, immigration, or employment purposes in Arab countries.
- Verification of Authenticity: Legalization guarantees that the Medical Letter is genuine and will be accepted by the relevant authorities in the destination country.
- Compliance with Legal Requirements: Legalizing the Medical Letter ensures it meets the legal standards and requirements of the destination country.
For Non-Arab Countries (Apostille)
- International Recognition: The Apostille certifies the Medical Letter as legally valid for use in all countries that accept Apostilles under the Hague Convention.
- Streamlined Process: The Apostille process is faster and simpler than embassy legalization, making it ideal for countries that accept Apostilles.
