The Maldives: Legalization of Document Requirements

Key Takeaways  

  • The Maldives updated guidelines for legal document submissions to the Government Gazette 

Updated Legal Document Submission Guidelines 

The Maldives updated guidelines for submitting legal documents to the Government Gazette, effective 24 November 2024. Key changes include: 

  • Submission Process: All documents must be sent to legalaffairs@po.gov.mv.
  • Amendments: Any revisions to submitted documents must be addressed under Directive No. 4/2015.
  • Legal Consultation: Ministries must consult the Attorney General’s Office before preparing documents.
  • Compliance Review: Documents must meet legal and linguistic standards before submission.

These changes mean that all legal documents related to immigration applications must follow the new submission and consultation procedures. This ensures that documents are thoroughly reviewed for compliance, which could impact processing times and the legal rigor of applications.
