Question 1

Is a Hague Apostille sufficient for Kuwait?

Accepted Answer

No. Kuwait is not a Hague Convention member. Both FCDO legalisation and Kuwait Embassy attestation are required.

Question 2

What is the difference between the Standard and Personal Solicitor tiers?

Accepted Answer

The Standard tier covers documents that go directly to the FCDO without needing prior solicitor certification (for example government-issued certificates). The Personal Solicitor tier adds a solicitor certification step for privately-issued documents such as degree certificates.

Question 3

Do I need to attend the Kuwait Embassy in person?

Accepted Answer

No. We represent you at the Embassy. You do not need to visit in person.

Question 4

Can I track my documents during processing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We send email status updates at each stage: receipt, FCDO submission, Embassy submission, and dispatch.

Question 5

What happens if my document is rejected?

Accepted Answer

In the rare event of a rejection, we contact you immediately to explain the reason and advise on the next steps, which may include re-certification or document replacement.
