Our dedicated customer support team is here to assist you with any questions or concerns you may have about your order. You can reach us via email, phone, or contact form, and we'll be happy to provide prompt and personalized assistance.
What happens if my document is rejected by the FCDO?
Rejections typically occur if the document has no recognisable signature or stamp, is laminated, is a photocopy rather than an original or certified copy, or is a type not eligible for an apostille (e.g., a religious certificate).
