Why you might need a document apostilled

Many countries require foreign documents to be authenticated before they’re accepted for work visas or employment. This is especially common for teachers with an accredited TEFL certification seeking positions in Asia and the Middle East. The authentication process involves:

  • Solicitor certification – A UK solicitor verifies your certificate is genuine
  • FCDO Apostille – The UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office adds an official apostille stamp
  • Embassy attestation (for certain countries like Vietnam) – Additional authentication by the destination country’s embassy

This makes your cheap accredited TEFL certification from StudyTEFL legally recognized and accepted by employers, immigration authorities, and government agencies abroad—proving that affordable doesn’t mean less legitimate.

Cheap TEFL course accreditation without the cheap feel.

Yes! Our accredited cheap TEFL certification is dual-accredited and UKRLP-registered with the UK government. Once apostilled, it carries the same legal weight as expensive alternatives. Even without the apostille, it’s still legitimate. Price doesn’t determine legitimacy – accreditation and quality do.

Our courses are OTCAC-accredited: OTCAC privately accredits many legitimate TEFL courses from companies like TEFL Institute, TEFLmasters, and Premier TEFL, for example.

Check with your employer or the embassy of your destination country. Most countries in Asia, the Middle East, and beyond require apostilled documents for work visas.

If not, please include:

  • A clear note explaining the name difference
  • A copy of your passport

This ensures proper certification statements are added by the solicitor.
