Ethiopia is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention and before any documents can be presented to the embassy of Ethiopia in Canberra documents need to be notarised by us and sent to the Australian Department of foreign affairs and trade for legalisation before there are sent to the Ethiopian embassy. We do not charge any additional processing fees to send the documents to the Department of Foreign affairs and Trade ( DFAT). Documents can be in the Amharic language and do not need to be translated.
