Legalization

The Austrian Embassy is authorized to legalize documents and signatures only, which are to be presented in Austria.

Legalization of Signatures

The legalization of signatures (i.e. Power of Attorney, opening of bank account in Austria etc.) can only be done in person (signature in front of Embassy official). A passport has to be shown for identification.
Consular fee: NIS equivalent of € 30,-- in cash. 
exception: legalizations for pension purposes are free of charge.

Legalization of Copies

Copies can only be legalized by the Austrian Embassy if the original documents are produced together with the copies.
Consular fee: NIS equivalent of € 30,-- in cash. 

Certificates (birth, marriage, death etc.)

For use in Austria, Israeli documents need an Apostille on the original document (issued by the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs). Vice versa Austrian documents require an Austrian Apostille.

Certified translations

Translations of Israeli documents have to be legalized at an Israeli notary. For translations made in Austria please contact a certified translator. A list of certified translators can be found at www.gerichtsdolmetscher.at.

Palestinian documents and translations of documents have to be legalized by the competent Palestinian authority (Palestinian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Consular Affairs). The signature of the Palestinian legalization officer can then be legalized by the Austrian Embassy.
