How to Apostille a Danish Marriage Certificate

How to Apostille a Danish Marriage Certificate

If you have been married in Denmark and need your marriage certificate recognised abroad, it must be apostilled by the Danish Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Copenhagen.

We manage the entire process on your behalf. Your document is handled locally in Denmark and submitted directly to the Ministry, ensuring a consistent and reliable procedure.

You simply send us your original marriage certificate, and we take care of the verification, submission, and return delivery.

Start by sending us your details through our online form:

  • A confirmation email with your case details

  • Our Danish office address for sending your document

  • Step-by-step instructions on how to prepare and send your certificate

  • Once we receive your document, we proceed with the apostille process immediately.

 

We typically respond within 2 hours on weekdays.

Step 2: Send Your Original Marriage Certificate

Please send your original Danish marriage certificate (copies cannot be processed):

Danish Apostille
Strandesplanaden 110
2665 Vallensbæk, Denmark

Please include a short note with:

  • Your full name

  • Your return address (including country)

  • Your phone number and email

We will notify you as soon as your document arrives at our office.

Step 3: We Verify and Prepare Your Document

Once your certificate arrives, we carefully check that it is an official Danish marriage certificate and that it meets all requirements for apostille legalisation.

We then prepare your document for direct submission to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Copenhagen.

  • Document Verification and Preparation

  • Tracked international delivery to your address

  • Tracking link provided by email

This step is handled entirely by our Danish-based team – we do not outsource document handling.

Step 4: Apostille Issued by the Ministry in Copenhagen

We personally deliver your certificate to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Udenrigsministeriet) in Copenhagen.

The Ministry verifies the document and issues the official apostille stamp, making it valid for international use.

 

Step 5: Secure worldwide delivery

Once the apostille is issued, we:

  • Package your legalised certificate in a secure envelope

  • Ship it with tracked international delivery to your home address

  • Provide you with a tracking link by email

Delivery typically takes 1-2 business days, depending on your location. Express courier shipping is available upon request.

With our apostille service in Denmark, your marriage certificate will be fully legalised, internationally recognised, and securely delivered without delays or complications.
