Short answer: corporate extracts have a short acceptance window — many destinations require issuance within 3 to 6 months of use, so schedule the extract, translation and legalisation inside one cycle. Timing to allow: Timing depends on the document type and each authority's processing; our team estimates after reviewing your file. Not a guarantee. Call 094-895-8999 if the deadline is tight — our team will check the current queue and estimate timing before work starts, without promising a delivery date.
