Apostille for Jamaica

Do you need an Apostille for Jamaica? At Apostille Direct London, we handle the full process for people, families, and firms sending UK documents to Jamaica. In most cases, a UK notary’s signature alone does the job. However, some banks and authorities still ask for an Apostille. Either way, we can guide you through the right route.

When you need an Apostille for Jamaica

Jamaica accepts documents that a UK notary has signed. This rule sits in section 22(2)(a) and (3) of the Jamaican Judicature (Supreme Court) Act 1880. Therefore, you often do not need full FCDO legalisation. In other words, a notarised copy usually does the job. However, on rare occasions you may still need an Apostille from the FCDO. For example, some banks, courts, or government offices ask for one. In that case, we can arrange the FCDO Apostille on your behalf.
