Official document attestation services for education, marriage, and birth certificates.
Certificate attestation is a step-by-step legal verification that proves your Indian documents are genuine so they can be used abroad — for work visas, family visas, higher education or business. The exact chain depends on the document type and destination country. Here is the standard process we handle end-to-end from our Masab Tank, Hyderabad office.
Documents are first verified at the state level — HRD attestation for educational certificates, and Home Department / SDM attestation for personal documents like birth and marriage certificates. Commercial documents are verified by the Chamber of Commerce.
The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Government of India then attests the document. For Hague Convention countries this step is an Apostille; for other countries it is a normal MEA stamp.
For non-Hague countries (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, etc.), the destination country's embassy in India attests the MEA-verified document.
On arrival in the destination Gulf country, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) completes the final attestation, making the document legally valid for use abroad.
| Document type | Authorities involved | Typical timeline |
|---|---|---|
| Educational (degree, diploma, transcripts) | HRD → MEA → Embassy | 7–15 working days |
| Personal (birth, marriage, experience) | Home Dept / SDM → MEA → Embassy | 5–12 working days |
| Commercial (incorporation, invoices, PoA) | Chamber of Commerce → MEA → Embassy | 5–10 working days |
Apostille applies to Hague Convention countries (USA, UK, most of Europe, Australia) — a single MEA Apostille sticker is enough. Attestation is required for non-Hague countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Kuwait, which need full embassy and MOFA attestation after MEA. Not sure which applies to your destination?
