Apostille fee increase for 2022
On 1 January 2022, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade (DFAT) has increased the apostille fee from $85 in 2021 to $87 for 2022.
The fee increase for DFAT apostille and authentications according to CPI is nothing unusual. It happens every year on 1 January.
What does this fee increase for our services?
Despite the apostille fee increase, until further notice, our fee to arrange the apostille from DFAT (including the increased apostille fee) on documents intended for India (or for VFS) remains unchanged.
Our office is currently closed for the Christmas and New Year period until 10 January 2022.
