Embassy legalisation for use in Bosnia and Herzegovina
This service does not apply to Bosnia and Herzegovina. A paper leaving Glasgow is finished once a single British office has signed it, and no mission waits behind that signature to add a second mark. Anyone preparing embassy legalization for Bosnia and Herzegovina from Glasgow is getting ready for a stage this destination does not run at all.
Why the answer does not move
The destination decides what it will take from abroad, and it decides once for everyone. That is a national position rather than a ruling made about your file, so it does not turn on the age of the paper, on the office that issued it, or on why you need it. Reading it as a case-by-case call is the usual way a short job grows an extra week.
The gain is that you can plan now and still be right later. There is no stage held back, no charge that might appear at the end, and no office abroad whose view has yet to be heard. What you can see when you start the job is the whole of the job.
The Glasgow → Bosnia and Herzegovina route step by step
Where the paper is a Scottish civil record, Glasgow Registration Office at 45 John Street, Glasgow G1 1JE issues a fresh certified extract, so the sheet you keep at home never has to travel. Papers of other kinds come from whichever body holds them: a court, an awarding body, or a company's own record keeper.
That extract then goes to the Legalisation Office (FCDO), which deals with the public by post and holds no counter for callers. The desk signs the paper and sends it back. Set out as a timeline, the run is a counter visit, an envelope out, a desk, and an envelope home again.
Cost & timing for this route
An official fee applies to each document the British desk handles, and it is the only charge this route carries. Standard work is quoted at 7–10 business days and the express lane at 2–3 business days. Both describe time at the desk, so the two postal legs sit outside either lane.
What the destination asks of the paper
Everything turns on the version you send, because no later reader in a chain will take a second look. Order the fresh certified copy, send that one, and keep the original where it is. People who legalize documents for Bosnia and Herzegovina are choosing a sheet, not booking a queue.
