UK apostilles are commonly required when documents are being submitted to Spanish authorities for visas, residency applications, legal matters, or academic purposes. The apostille confirms the authenticity of the UK-issued document so it can be formally recognised for use in Spain.
Wilmer Health can arrange apostilles for a wide range of UK documents, including:
If you’re unsure whether your document needs an apostille, our team can advise before you place an order. Simply get in touch through our contact page and we’ll guide you through the next steps.
UK apostilles are issued by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) — the government authority responsible for legalising UK documents for use overseas, including in Spain.
Your documents are processed through the official priority FCDO apostille system and returned to you securely, without you needing to deal with government procedures directly — all in one coordinated service.
“When we first started Wilmer Health, our focus was helping people secure Spanish visa medical certificates. Very quickly, it became clear that the certificate was only one part of a much bigger process.
Applicants were also struggling with apostilles, translations, and supporting documents — often dealing with multiple providers, delays, and conflicting guidance. We stepped in to simplify that.
Today, Wilmer Health coordinates the documents most commonly required for moving to Spain, including UK apostilles, sworn translations, medical certificates, and Spanish health insurance — all in one place. Our role is to make the paperwork side of your move clear, coordinated, and stress-free.
If you need an apostille for a Spanish visa, residency application, or legal matter, you’re in the right place. We’ll handle the process — efficiently, accurately, and with the same attention to detail we apply to every service we provide.”
Dr Andrew Smith, Medical Director at Wilmer Health
“I used Wilmer Health to obtain my Spanish visa medical certificate. The process was incredibly easy — a quick online form and everything was handled for me.
I received my medical certificate almost immediately, and Adam guided me through the process. I was struggling to get these documents sorted, but Wilmer Health made it effortless. Five stars — highly recommended.”
A UK apostille is an official FCDO certificate that confirms a UK document is genuine for use abroad. It’s commonly required when UK documents are being submitted to Spanish authorities for visas, residency, property purchases, legal matters, or academic purposes.
UK apostilles are issued only by the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). Wilmer Health manages the process on your behalf to ensure fast, secure legalisation of your documents.
Yes. An FCDO apostille is valid for official use in Spain, including Spanish visa applications, residency processes, property matters, legal documents, and academic submissions.
Most UK-issued official documents can be apostilled, including:
If you’re unsure whether your document is suitable, we can advise before you send anything.
Usually, yes. The FCDO apostille process is typically completed on an original document (or a correctly certified copy, depending on the document type).
After you place an order, we’ll tell you exactly what to send and how to post it securely.
Standard processing is typically around 8 to 10 working days, depending on document type. Priority options including 5 and 4 working day services are also available for many documents if you’re working to a deadline.
Our apostille service starts from £85 per document, including handling and tracked return delivery.
Complete the short online order form, then send your document to us by post or courier. We check it first, submit it for apostille, and return it securely to your chosen address.
Yes. Wilmer Health can coordinate apostilles and Spanish translations for visa and residency paperwork, along with other commonly required documents such as medical certificates.
This keeps everything in one place and helps avoid delays caused by incorrect formatting or document sequencing.
Not always. Whether you need an apostille depends on the type of document and what the Spanish consulate or authority asks for. Common examples that often require apostille include medical certificates, police certificates, civil documents (birth/marriage), and certain legal documents.
If you tell us what you’re submitting, we can advise which documents typically need an apostille.
No — the UK FCDO can only issue apostilles for UK-issued documents (or documents correctly certified in the UK where appropriate). If your document was issued overseas, it usually needs legalisation in the country where it was issued.
If you’re unsure, send us the document details and we’ll point you in the right direction before you order.
If a document isn’t suitable, the FCDO may refuse to apostille it (for example, if it isn’t properly certified or doesn’t meet legalisation rules). If this happens, we’ll contact you quickly and explain the next step, such as arranging the correct certification or advising on the best alternative.
Yes. Your apostilled document is returned using tracked delivery to your chosen address, so you can follow it and know when to expect it.
An apostille itself does not usually have an “expiry date”. However, Spanish consulates and authorities may expect certain supporting documents (such as police certificates or medical documents) to be recently issued when you submit your application.
If you’re working to a visa appointment date, we can help you plan the timing.
