Step-by-step procedure: How to resolve the matter safely

1. Granting power of attorney and procuring a fresh duplicate birth certificate (Legalization Center Bratislava (under power of attorney)) Based on a power of attorney, we handle everything turnkey on your behalf. You do not need to visit offices or look for an old document – we procure a fresh civil registry duplicate directly from the Slovak registry office ourselves. The condition for guaranteeing the single turnaround time of within 5 business days for the entire process is that we handle everything ourselves based on a power of attorney, including procuring the duplicate. 2. Procurement of international Apostille certificate on the birth certificate (Legalization Center Bratislava) We secure the Hague Apostille certificate directly on the procured duplicate birth certificate. You do not need to visit any authorities or queue at offices – we handle the entire procedure and state fees on your behalf. More information at: [Birth Certificate Apostille](https://www.legalizacnecentrum.sk/apostila-rodneho-listu/). 3. Certified sworn court translation into English bound with tricolor ribbon (Certified Court Translator registered with MS SR) An authorized court translator prepares an official sworn translation of the birth certificate and Apostille clause into English (fixed price 70 € as both the front page of the document and the Apostille clause are translated; fully accepted by Dutch municipal authorities) and firmly binds the document with a tricolor ribbon and state round seal. 4. Procurement of second Apostille certificate on the certified translation (Legalization Center Bratislava) We secure the second international Apostille certificate directly on the sworn court translation (higher authentication of the court translator’s signature and official seal). With this double verification, your document meets all strict requirements of Dutch Gemeente offices and is ready for BRP registration and BSN issuance.
