Antarch Consulting offers two broad categories of services: Document authentication (Apostille) and Diaspora Services.

Document authentication (Apostille)

Nigerians seeking to study abroad, take up employment, do business, get married, or process their residency or citizenship applications abroad often need to authenticate the relevant documents applicable to these processes as part of the requirements to achieve their objectives. Authentication - also known as apostille, attestation or legalization - is statutorily performed by the Federal Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Abuja, Nigeria. However, many people who need to have their relevant documents authenticated may either be unable to make it to Abuja for that purpose, or may be unwilling to experience the stress,delays and uncertainties associated with this bureaucratic procedure. This is where Antarch Consulting comes in - we leverage on our experience to facilitate efficient, quick and safe authentication of documents.

Diaspora Services

Antarch Consulting provides safe 'on the ground' representation for Nigerians and foreigners abroad who need to execute tasks or projects in Nigeria. We ensure effective supervision, verification or oversight for people seeking to acquire properties, obtain documentation, and carry out other domestic assignments and transactions in Nigeria without being physically present. Think of Antarch Consulting as a dependable ally that can help you verify, oversee or accomplish important tasks you need to get done in Nigeria.

Document Authentication & Legalization

We help facilitate document authentication (apostille) at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Examples of documents that may need to be authenticated include business incorporation and registration certificates, court affidavits, power of attorney, contract and agreement letters, academic credentials, birth and marriage certificates, single status certificates, and police character certificates.

Nigeria Diaspora Services (For Nigerians abroad and Foreigners)

We offer proxy representation and oversight for a variety of projects and tasks that need to be accomplished on your behalf in Nigeria - thus mitigating risks and uncertainties for you. Examples include verifying and validating document titles for intending property acquisitions, liaising with lawyers, contractors and other involved parties to ensure smooth execution of construction projects, initiating and following up with corporate documentation or licensing processes relating to setting up a new business in Nigeria, submitting and following up with applications for registrations or contracts, obtaining important personal and business documents, and validating transactions with local resource persons.
