Questions about this document

Can you translate it as well? Yes: certified or sworn translation goes in the same order. How many copies do I need? One apostille covers one document. Ask the receiving authority whether it wants an original or a copy. Which one comes first, apostille or translation? The apostille. Translating first usually means doing it twice.
