Degree Apostille in Coimbatore: For Study, Work and Recognition Abroad

 

What is a degree apostille?

A degree apostille is an MEA certificate placed on your degree certificate after it has been verified by your university and authenticated by the state government. It lets Hague Convention countries accept your degree without embassy legalisation.

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
Embassy visit needed	No	Yes

When is a degree apostille needed?

Degree certificates are usually apostilled for:

• Higher studies: Master’s and PhD admissions in countries like Italy, Spain, Poland and South Korea.
• Work visas: such as EU Blue Card, Korean E-7 and other skilled work visas.
• Professional recognition: nursing, engineering and medical registration abroad.
• Residence and citizenship: where qualifications count towards points or eligibility.

Mark sheets and transcripts	University verification, then state authentication
Provisional certificate	Usually accepted only where the degree is not yet issued; check first

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.

Consolidated mark sheet. Universities often ask for it during verification.

How long does a degree apostille take?

University verification usually takes the longest, and timing varies by university. Once verified, state authentication and the MEA apostille take a few more working days. We give you a realistic timeline after checking your documents.

Common mistakes that delay a degree apostille

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.

Using the provisional certificate. Most countries want the final degree certificate.

Not apostilling transcripts. Many universities abroad want both the degree and transcripts apostilled.

FAQ Section

Can a degree from any university be apostilled?

Generally, yes, if the university is recognised and can verify it.

Can transcripts be apostilled?

Yes, after university verification and state authentication.

Is a degree apostille the same as HRD attestation?

No. HRD attestation is the state step before the MEA apostille.

How much does a degree apostille cost?

It depends on university verification fees, government fees and courier. We provide an itemised quotation.

Can someone else submit my documents?

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.
