Save money on the translation and legalisation for your Greek destination wedding.

You will need to make an application of the apostille (official confirmation that a signature, seal or stamp on a UK public document is genuine).

Documents then need to be translated and legalised at the Greek Consulate. The process needs accuracy to avoid any disappointments.

Weddings in Greece –
so which documents do I need?

Situation dependent, for two British nationals marrying in Greece, the legal documentation requirements as advised by the Greek Embassy are:
