Hi!
What is consular certification in Vietnam ?
Consular certification means the competent Vietnamese agencies' certification of stamps, signatures and titles on Vietnam's papers and documents for being recognized and used abroad (Clause 1 Article 2 Decree No. 111/2011/NĐ-CP dated December 05, 2011).
Consular certification and legalization is simply certification of stamps, signatures and titles on papers and documents, not covering certification of contents and forms of papers and documents (Clause 3 Decree No. 111/2011/NĐ-CP dated December 05, 2011).
Vietnamese agencies competent to carry out consular certification:
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is competent to carry out consular certification and legalization in Vietnam. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs may authorize foreign affairs agencies of provinces and centrally run cities to receive dossiers of request for consular certification or legalization.
The Consular Department and the Service of Foreign Affairs of Ho Chi Minh City of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are competent to carry out consular certification and legalization in Vietnam (Clause 1 Article 1 Circular No. 01/2012/TT-BNG dated March 20, 2012).
Overseas Vietnamese diplomatic missions, consulates or other agencies authorized to perform the consular function (below referred to as representative missions) are competent to carry out consular certification and legalization overseas (Article 5 Decree No. 111/2011/NĐ-CP dated December 05, 2011).
