Apostille & Document Legalization in Moncton

As the bilingual hub of the Maritimes, Moncton handles life in two languages — and increasingly, across many borders. The city's growing newcomer population maintains family, property, and civil-status ties abroad, generating steady demand for legalized birth certificates, marriage records, and declarations that a foreign registry, court, or consulate will accept.

The Université de Moncton, the largest French-language university outside Quebec, draws students from francophone countries around the world. Graduates frequently need diplomas and transcripts legalized for employment or further study in Africa, Europe, and elsewhere, and the university's international character means many files involve French-language documents from the outset.

Moncton's role as a transportation, logistics, and customer-service centre for Atlantic Canada adds corporate demand: companies expanding abroad, professionals taking overseas contracts, and workers who need police record checks recognized by a foreign employer or immigration authority. Families arranging marriages, adoptions, or estates that cross borders complete the picture of who reaches out for help.

New Brunswick documents start with local preparation — notarization or certification where required, or official vital records obtained from the provincial vital statistics office. Documents may be in English or French; both are handled the same way at the federal level. From there, the path differs from provinces like BC or Ontario in one important way.

New Brunswick does not issue its own apostilles. Documents issued in the province receive their apostille or authentication through Global Affairs Canada, the same federal body that handles RCMP checks and other federal documents. Since Canada joined the Apostille Convention on 11 January 2024, Convention destinations use the apostille; other destinations still require authentication followed by consular legalization at the country's embassy or consulate.

Because the competent authority for New Brunswick documents is federal, there is no local counter to visit anyway — which makes a fully remote service a natural fit. Visa Jet coordinates the entire chain by email and secure courier, confirming the correct route for your destination before anything is sent.

Visa Jet supports the English and French documents Moncton clients most often need recognized internationally.

Visa Jet is a private document-support agency, not a government office, embassy, or partner of Global Affairs Canada. We do not operate a walk-in office in Moncton — and since New Brunswick documents are processed federally rather than at a provincial counter, remote handling is how these files move regardless. We coordinate everything by email and secure courier for clients across Moncton, Dieppe, and Riverview.

Our team reviews your destination and documents, explains the local notarization or certification needed, and manages the apostille, authentication, or consular legalization steps in the correct order.
