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.

Step-by-step MEA apostille services from Coimbatore

• Document check. Send scans on WhatsApp or email. We check the issuing authority, name spellings, dates and the physical condition of the document, and tell you what applies.
• Submission. Hand over the originals at our office or send them by courier.
• Verification and state authentication. The document is verified by the issuing university or office, then authenticated by the Tamil Nadu state government, as required.
• MEA apostille. The document is submitted to the Ministry of External Affairs for the apostille.
• Return. You collect the apostilled document from our office, or we send it back by courier.

How to submit your documents from Coimbatore

You can start the process in three ways:

Submit at our office: bring your originals for checking and submission.

By courier: send your documents from anywhere in Coimbatore district and the western Tamil Nadu belt, including Pollachi, Mettupalayam, Sulur, Annur, Valparai and Kinathukadavu, or from Tiruppur, Erode and the Nilgiris and outside Tamil Nadu.

Online first: share scans by WhatsApp or email for a free check, then send the originals. The apostilled documents are couriered back to your address.

When sending by courier, use a tracked service, keep photocopies for yourself and pack certificates flat so they don't fold or tear.

How long do MEA 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. We give you a realistic timeline after checking your documents.

Common mistakes when using MEA 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.

No itemised quote. Ask for a breakdown of government and service fees.

Wrong route. Confirm the destination country accepts an apostille.

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.
