Questions
Frequently asked questions
An apostille is a single certificate issued by the Ministry of External Affairs and accepted by all 120+ member countries of the Hague Convention. Countries outside that convention do not accept an apostille and instead require embassy attestation, where the destination country's embassy stamps the document after MEA attestation. Membership changes: Saudi Arabia joined in 2022 and Viet Nam in 2026, while the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait remain outside it. China and Germany are members but do not accept Indian apostilles, because of objections under the Convention.
Apostille on a personal document typically takes 3 to 5 working days. Educational documents needing HRD or state authentication first usually take 7 to 15 working days depending on the issuing state. Full embassy attestation for countries outside the convention, such as the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait, generally takes 12 to 25 working days.
Yes. Attestation and apostille stamps are applied to the original document itself, so originals must be submitted. Clients in India or abroad courier the originals to our New Delhi office, and we return them by courier.
Educational documents such as degree, diploma and mark sheets; personal documents such as birth, marriage, death and police clearance certificates; and commercial documents such as certificates of origin, invoices, memorandums of association and board resolutions.
Yes — most of our clients live outside India. Message us first with the document and the destination country: required documents vary from embassy to embassy, so we confirm exactly what to send for your case. Then courier your originals to our New Delhi office by DHL, FedEx or any courier you prefer. We complete every stamp and courier the documents back to your address anywhere in the world. Courier charges in both directions are paid by the client.
Use a tracked service such as DHL or FedEx and share the tracking number with us, so both of us can follow the parcel. Originals are needed because every stamp is applied to the original document itself.
Cost depends on the document type, the issuing state and the destination country, since embassy fees vary widely. We quote our service charge and the government and embassy fees up front, so nothing is added later. Courier charges for sending documents to us and returning them are paid by the client.
Not sure where to start?
Send us the document and the destination country. We will reply within one working hour with the exact process, timeline and cost.
