Further to the instructions of SAMA communicated by Circular No. (44073468) dated 15/09/1444 H, which stipulates that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the relevant embassies do not need to certify foreign documents bearing the “Apostille” certificate.
Accordingly, in view of the observed failure of some banks to accept foreign public documents bearing the “Apostille” certificate due to the lack of Ministry of Foreign Affairs endorsement, SAMA emphasizes to all banks to abide by the above-mentioned instructions and to sensitize all branches and departments concerned about the same.
