What Our Clients Are Saying

I used IDOCS when it became apparent that I had to fly to China while my documents were being processed at the Department of Foreign Affairs and the Chinese Embassy. I needed three documents legalised by the two offices. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly their staff replied to my initial inquiry and couldn’t have been happier with their consistent effort to keep me informed and to answer my questions with promptness. As could be expected, I was more than a little anxious about leaving Canada with such important documents in the hands of strangers, but the IDOCS team proved to be professional and quick. My documents arrived fully legalised in Shanghai much faster than I anticipated. I would definitely recommend their services to anyone in need of fast, reliable document help. The value for your money cannot be matched!

I cannot tell you how impressed we are with the service we received from your company. The information Heather provided in the initial phone call was accurate and informative. She followed up with an email wherein she assured us the papers would be authenticated and legalized the following day; that we would be kept informed at each stage in the process and that they would be sent by courier overseas. In less than 24 hours this was all taken care of!

As an expat trying to navigate difficult immigration requirements, I fully appreciate the professionalism of IDC and their attention to detail. I have had to use their service on two separate occasions and was extremely satisfied with both engagements. IDC clearly has the right relationships and processes in place to efficiently handle the document authorization/legalization process. I would highly recommend their service to anyone looking for a responsible agent in Canada.

Thank you so much for your help in navigating the language of authenticating and legalizing documents. Your expertise was crucial to my understanding of the process. Your staff were quick to respond with answers to questions and went out of their way to make things easier for me to navigate the process of obtaining the proper paperwork required for an International Work Visa.
