To legalize documents issued by Iranian authorities which will be used in Norway, documents must be officially translated in English language and authenticated by Iranian Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
- Legalization costs EUR 30 per document. The fee must be paid at the embassy in cash, using banknotes only.
Notarial acts (notarius publicus):
In accordance with the Norwegian Foreign service Act § 13 Notarial acts, the Embassy in Tehran may perform any act a notary public in Norway is authorised to perform, if this is done on behalf of a Norwegian citizen or the matter is otherwise linked to Norway or Norwegian interests.
This entails the following acts:
- Confirm true copy
- Confirm signatures
- Confirm that a person is alive (life certificate)
The foreign mission can only confirm true copy of Norwegian original documents, for example Norwegian passports, diplomas, birth certificates and residency certificates. This means that the Embassy cannot confirm true copy of Iranian ID-documents or other documents issued in Iran.
