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

What you need to provide for Apostille

Original document. The apostille is placed on the original certificate, so we need the actual document. If you only have a copy, ask us before sending it, as whether a copy can be used depends on the document.

Passport copy. A clear copy of the first and last pages.

Supporting documents for education. Related mark sheets or transcripts, if the university asks for them during verification.

How long do online apostille services take?

It depends on the document. Once a document is ready for submission, the apostille stage can take 2–3 working days. Educational certificates usually take longer, because the issuing university must verify them and the state government must authenticate them first. Add courier time at both ends. We give you a realistic timeline after checking your documents.

Common mistakes with online apostille services

Laminated certificates. Lamination can cause problems during verification and apostille, so don’t laminate certificates you may need abroad.

Name mismatches. Different spellings on your passport and certificates can lead to questions later. Check them before you start.

Sending originals before the check. Get scans checked first so you only send what is needed.

Not keeping copies. Keep photocopies of everything you send.

Yes. We submit your documents on your behalf, so you don’t need to visit any office yourself.

Is my original document needed?

Usually, yes. The apostille is placed on the original document, so scans are used only for the initial check. If you only have a copy, ask us whether it can be used.

What is the difference between apostille and attestation?

An apostille is issued by the MEA for Hague Convention countries such as France, Italy and Australia. Attestation involves the MEA and then the embassy of the destination country, and is used for non-member countries such as the UAE and Qatar, and for mainland China.
