Special note about Bahrain
Bahrain acceded to the Hague Apostille Convention effective April 10, 2013, and most documents for Bahrain are Legalized by Apostille. However, legal entities within the country still sometimes request Embassy legalization, and your trading partner in Bahrain may request Embassy Legalization rather than an Apostille. AWTCC can legalize those documents through the Embassy of Bahrain as necessary.
The fee schedule for Embassy Legalization in Bahrain is as follows:
Special Requirements
Please confirm with your trading partner in Bahrain if they will accept an Apostille (faster and less expensive; process described above), or require Legalization by the Embassy of Bahrain.
