If the applicant does the legalization then s/he needs to legalize the documents at the Embassy or Consulate of Azerbaijan of applicant’s country as well. If there is no Embassy or Consulate of Azerbaijan in applicant’s country, s/he can legalize it in Consular Office of Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan.
