FDA Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG) Legalization for Use in Libya

For documents such as an FDA Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG) to be accepted in Libya, they must go through a formal consular legalization process. CFG Apostille provides expedited legalization services, finalizing the process in 9 business days, and accepts both digital and physical FDA certificates.

1. Requesting the FDA Certificate to Foreign Government (CFG)

To begin, obtain the FDA Certificate to Foreign Government from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. This certificate verifies that your exported product complies with FDA regulations and meets export requirements.

  • Application Method: Submit the request via the [FDA Export Certification Application System].

  • Certificate Format: The FDA may issue either a paper version or a digitally signed certificate.

  • Digital Acceptance: CFG Apostille processes FDA certificates with official digital seals directly as electronic files — no mailing required.

2. Determine Libya’s Legalization Requirements

Since Libya is not a signatory to the Hague Apostille Convention, apostilles are not valid. Documents intended for Libya must be legalized through the U.S. Department of State and the Libyan Embassy or Consulate.

CFG Apostille can assist in verifying Libya’s current document authentication requirements and ensure that your CFG meets all import and regulatory criteria.

3. Initiate the Legalization Request

Once your FDA CFG is issued, you can request legalization through our website.

  • Form Submission: Complete the legalization request form at cfgapostille.com.

  • Payment Options: Pay securely online through our encrypted platform.

  • Processing Time: Expedited service ensures completion within 9 business days.

4. Submitting Your FDA Certificate

Depending on the format of your certificate, choose one of the following submission options:

  • Digital Submission: Upload the electronic FDA certificate (with digital seal) directly to us.

  • Physical Submission: Mail the original or a certified copy to:
    CFG Apostille
    1615 Bay Head Rd #120
    Annapolis, MD 21409, USA

5. Authentication by the U.S. Department of State

After receiving your document, CFG Apostille submits it to the U.S. Department of State – Office of Authentications for consular legalization.

Department Address:
U.S. Department of State
Office of Authentications
600 19th Street NW, 2nd Floor

You may also need to provide translations or supplementary documents based on specific Libyan regulatory requirements.
