Apostille Indonesia Service 2026: Frequently Asked Questions

Apostille is the name of the international document legalization system.

Apostille certifies that the signature of a foreign civil servant and the legality of a stamp or seal, and that the document was issued by a legitimate entity. This allows you to use foreign official documents abroad.

Indonesia has recently become a member of this system, thanks to which the legalization of documents has become much easier.

Remember, you have to check for yourself if the Apostille made in Indonesia is what you need for your case.

All documents requiring Apostille legalization are processed at the Ministry of Law and Human Rights in Jakarta.

Kementerian Hukum dan Hak Asasi Manusia Republik Indonesia

Common name: Kemenkumham

Apostille is required when presenting important documents in a foreign country to ensure their validity. The Apostille is issued under the Hague Convention of 1961 and is recognized by over 100 countries, including Indonesia.

If you want to use any foreign document in Indonesia, or you want to use abroad any document issued in Indonesia, you need to make Apostille.

apostille indonesia document

Apostille Indonesia is a one-page document certified by an officer of the Ministry of Law.

The Apostille document states that the attached document is legalized, authentic and internationally certified.
The Apostille document is in Bahasa Indonesia and English.
This document is permanently attached to the document you will want to apostill.

Please choose process you need based on original or printed scan copy. 
Processed document will be officially attached to the apostille document.

Apostille certificates do not have an expiry date.
The apostille certificate will have a date of issue but they do not ‘run out’ or ‘expire’. In most circumstances an apostille should be accepted at any time after issue. However, there are some circumstances when a recent apostille may be requested on a document.

You can make the apostille of the document yourself at the Ministry of Law in Jakarta. The document must be original and/or notarized.
You can also outsource the entire legalization to us. We will collect the document and provide you with the completed legalization with all necessary steps.

The whole process can be carried out remotely without your presence in Jakarta.

The Apostille is applied  to documents issued by Indonesian institutions and other documents that have been notarized by an Indonesian notary public on the list accepted by the Ministry of Law and Human Rights.
For example:
– you can make an apostille directly for an Indonesian birth certificate
– you can make an apostille for the Power of Attorney, but before that you need to legalize it with a notary public accredited to operate in the Apostille system (we have such a notary public)

Remember, you have to check for yourself if the Apostille made in Indonesia is what you need for your case.

You have to send copies/scans of the documents you want to Apostille. Files will be verified by the Officer in the Ministry and we will present you the possible ways of legalization. The verification may take about 1-2 business days, depending on the occupancy at the Ministry.
In most cases, we can make an Apostille based on a copy if we also receive a KTP/Passport scan from you.
We have notaries at our disposal who can perform the necessary legalizations before proceeding with the Apostille.

First, you send us scans (copies) of the documents you want to legalize, and ALWAYS a scan of your passport or of the persons referred to in the document you want to legalize.
If you have KITAS, it’s a good idea to include a copy of it as well.

The Convention applies only to public documents. These are documents emanating from an authority or official connected with a court or tribunal of the State (including documents issued by an administrative, constitutional or ecclesiastical court or tribunal, a public prosecutor, a clerk or a process-server); administrative documents; notarial acts; and official certificates which are placed on documents signed by persons in their private capacity, such as official certificates recording the registration of a document or the fact that it was in existence on a certain date and official and notarial authentications of signatures.

The main examples of public documents for which Apostilles are issued in practice include birth, marriage and death certificates; extracts from commercial registers and other registers; patents; court rulings; notarial acts and notarial attestations of signatures; academic diplomas issued by public institutions. Diplomas issued by private institutions may not be apostillised directly; a “private” diploma may, however, bear an official certificate issued by a notary, Solicitor, Agency or any other person or authority competent under the law of the State of origin of the diploma to authenticate the signature on the diploma.

This official certificate is a public document under the Convention and thus may be apostillised. In such a case the Apostille does not relate to the diploma itself; instead it certifies the authenticity of the certificate on or accompanying the diploma. Finally, the Convention neither applies to documents executed by diplomatic or consular agents nor to administrative documents dealing directly with commercial or customs operations (e.g., certificates of origin or import or export licenses).
