Argentina is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention: a single apostille, affixed in Switzerland by the chancellery of the issuing canton, makes your Swiss document valid there — no embassy, no consulate, no further stamp.
Order an apostille →Always in the country that issued the document — so for your Swiss diploma, extract or certificate, at the state chancellery of the issuing canton, or at the Federal Chancellery for federal documents. We route it; you just name the canton.
Diplomas and transcripts for jobs and universities, civil-status records for marriages and residence, criminal-record extracts for visas, commercial-register extracts and powers of attorney for business.
Standard 1–2 business days plus delivery; same-day express available. Registered Swiss mail included — or DHL straight to Argentina (CHF 140 worldwide, CHF 90 in Europe).
A Spanish translation is required, and Argentina is one of the strictest countries on the translator’s status: official use generally requires a traductor público registered with a professional college, whose signature is in turn certified by that college. A Swiss certified translation is not a substitute. Plan for the translation and its certification to happen in Argentina.
Argentine files for citizenship by descent are among the most document-heavy we handle: birth, marriage and sometimes death certificates going back two generations, each needing its own apostille. Order them as one batch and send us the full list at the start — the sequencing matters and doing it piecemeal costs more.
