Diploma Legalization for Use Abroad
The legalization of Russian educational documents is required for their legitimate use in foreign countries. This process involves authentication of the university's signature and official seal, and is categorized into two types: “Consular Legalization” and “Apostille Certification”
Consular Legalization

This process consists of two stages:

  1. Authentication of educational documents through affixation of the seal by the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA). Since 2025, this stage is performed by university staff at the regional MFA Representative Office (Rostov-on-Don).
  2. Certification by Consular Services of foreign embassies in the Russian Federation.
