Why You Need a Notary for the Netherlands Documents
the Netherlands authorities — whether immigration, banking, legal, or professional licensing bodies — require that documents presented from Ireland bear the certification of a qualified notary public. A notarial certificate confirms the authenticity of the document and the identity of its signatory. For the Netherlands, this is then typically followed by an apostille or, in some cases, embassy legalisation.
