Apostille for birth certificates, marriage certificates and educational certificates, commercial document attestation and embassy attestation support are among the most common requests.

Clients in India can use this certified document translation service for apostille and attestation documents, and notarization or attestation can be added on request.

You can contact our team from anywhere in India, whether your documents originate from Delhi, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Gujarat, Punjab, Haryana, West Bengal, Kerala, Rajasthan or another state, to discuss your requirements, obtain a quotation and understand the documentation process.

The applicable procedure depends on the issuing authority, document category, destination country and requirements of the receiving organisation.

What Is an Apostille & Document Attestation?

An apostille is an official certificate that authenticates the origin of an eligible public document for use in another country where the Hague Apostille Convention applies. It generally verifies the authenticity of the signature, the capacity in which the person signing the document acted, and the identity of the seal or stamp, where applicable. It does not certify the accuracy of the document's contents. In India, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) is responsible for issuing apostilles under the applicable procedure.

Document attestation is a process used to authenticate documents for acceptance in another country. For countries where the Hague Apostille Convention does not apply, or where apostille is not accepted for the intended purpose, normal attestation or consular legalisation may be required. Depending on the document and destination, the process may involve authentication by the relevant state authority, an educational authority, a notary or another competent authority before further attestation. Some countries may also require verification or legalisation through their embassy or consulate.

Apostille requirements should be checked before submitting your documents because eligibility and preliminary authentication requirements may vary according to the issuing authority and document type. Our team can help review the intended use of your documents and explain the applicable steps before you proceed.
