Russian, CIS & European Archives
Obtaining documents from archives of other countries. We help recover personal documents, confirm work experience or property rights in Russia, the CIS and Europe.
In today's globalised world, many vital documents may be held in archives of other countries. We assist in obtaining certificates from registry offices and departmental and historical archives in Russia, Belarus, Ukraine, Kazakhstan and European states.
