Legalisation
If the translation is to be used abroad, it becomes necessary to legalise the signature of the court clerk who witnessed the oath statement, by turning to the foreign country’s embassy or consulate in Italy. For use in the States adhering to the Hague Convention of 5 October 1961, double legalisation is replaced by the affixation of an Apostille, carried out by the Public Prosecutor’s Office at the local court.
