We asked Mei-Lin’s relatives to retrieve, legalize and double-legalize another Chinese copy of Penelope’s birth certificate in Taiwan, and have them send it to Satan in Taipei. Satan sent the dossier to the Zivilsthing Zerneve, which issued the Swiss Family Book to us per post together with a bill to pay. Costs are so updated:
- Penelope’s birth certificate (in Chinese): 15 NTD.
- Notary legalization of above: 700 NTD (discounted service because we are by now good customers of the notary).
- MOFA legalization of the above: 400 NTD.
- Postage to Satan: 60 NTD.
- Bill from Zivilsthing Zerneve: 40 CHF for the Family Book, plus 1.10 CHF for the envelope, plus 75 CHF because AYFKM it’s ANOTHER legalization done by them. Total: 116.10 CHF.
Total: roughly equivalent to 148.25 CHF. Plus the previous 190.20 CHF we are now at about 338.45 CHF (about 364 EUR / 398 USD).
