About Embassy Attestation
Embassy attestation is the process of getting your MEA-attested certificate verified and stamped by the embassy or consulate of the country where you intend to use the document. It confirms to the destination country that the document has already been authenticated by the Indian government and is genuine.
For Gulf countries β UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Oman and Bahrain β embassy attestation is a mandatory step in the chain: HRD/Home Department β MEA β Embassy β MOFA. Without embassy attestation, the document cannot proceed to the final MOFA stamp in the destination country.
We collect documents from anywhere in India, complete MEA attestation if not already done, and submit the documents to the respective Gulf embassies in New Delhi on your behalf β saving you the time, travel and confusion of visiting embassy offices yourself.
