A certified true copy is a copy of a document that a notary public or another authorised official has compared with the original and certified as identical. Universities, banks, employers, embassies and foreign authorities often accept certified true copies so you never have to hand over or post your original passport, diploma or certificate.

We arrange certification with a notary public in Sierra Leone and, when the copy will be used abroad, follow it with Ministry and embassy legalization and a certified translation if the receiving country needs one.

Frequently asked questions

Does the notary need to see my original?

Yes. A true copy can only be certified against the original document. We tell you where and when to present it, or collect it from you in Freetown and return it the same day where possible.

Will a certified copy from Sierra Leone be accepted abroad?

It depends on the receiving institution. Many accept it once it is legalized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the relevant embassy. We check the requirement before you order.
