Apostille Notary in Coimbatore: Notarisation and Apostille for Affidavits, POA and Copies

 

What is apostille notary?

Some documents can only be apostilled after a notary has attested them. This applies mainly to private documents such as affidavits, powers of attorney and declarations, and to some copies of documents. The notarised document is then authenticated by the state government and apostilled by the MEA.

Each MEA apostille carries a unique number that the receiving authority abroad can verify.

Apostille or attestation: which one do you need?

Hague Convention countries need an apostille, not embassy attestation. Embassy attestation is used for countries outside the Hague Convention. A few member countries, such as Germany and mainland China, do not accept apostilles from India and follow their own rules.

	Apostille	Embassy Attestation
Used for	Hague Convention countries that accept Indian apostilles, such as France, Italy, Spain and Australia	Non-member countries, such as the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait
Final authority	MEA, Government of India	Embassy of the destination country, after MEA attestation

Which documents need notarisation before apostille?

Notarisation is usually the first step for:

• Affidavits and declarations: single status, name change, birth and parental consent affidavits.
• Powers of attorney: for property, bank or legal matters abroad.
• Copies of documents: such as passport copies, where the original cannot be apostilled.
• Business documents: board resolutions, authorisation letters and some company documents.

Document	Steps
Affidavit or declaration	Notary → state authentication → MEA apostille
Power of attorney	Notary → state authentication → MEA apostille
Passport copy	Notarised copy → MEA apostille (or as required)
Company documents	Notary → chamber of commerce or state authentication → MEA apostille

Signing without the notary present. The notary must witness the signature.

Wrong stamp paper value. Check the stamp paper requirement before printing.
