BCA Degree Certificate Apostille & Attestation Services in India

Overview

If you’re planning to study abroad, pursue employment, or migrate after completing your BCA (Bachelor of Computer Applications) in India, your degree certificate must undergo apostille or attestation, depending on the destination country. This process ensures that your BCA certificate is officially recognized and legally valid overseas.

This detailed guide explains the apostille and attestation procedure for BCA certificates issued in India, including required steps, processing time, and accepted methods for various countries.

Apostille for Indian-Issued BCA Degree Certificates

The apostille process applies when you’re submitting your documents to a country that is part of the Hague Convention of 1961. Once apostilled, your BCA certificate will be valid across all member countries without further embassy-level authentication.

Two main procedures are followed in India for apostilling BCA certificates:

1. State HRD / University Verification + MEA Apostille

This is the traditional and widely accepted process:

Step 1: University or State HRD Attestation
The BCA certificate is authenticated by the respective university or the State Human Resource Development Department (HRD). This confirms the academic authenticity of the document.
Step 2: MEA Apostille
After successful state-level verification, the certificate is sent to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Government of India, for apostille.

This route is commonly used for educational migration, student visas, or academic equivalence in foreign institutions.

2. Notary + SDM + MEA Apostille (Fast-Track Process)

This process is faster and accepted by most Hague Convention countries:

Step 1: Notary Attestation
A public notary confirms the legitimacy of the BCA certificate.
Step 2: Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) Attestation – Delhi
The document is further authenticated by the SDM, New Delhi.
Step 3: MEA Apostille
The certificate is then apostilled by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).

This quicker process often takes just 1–2 working days and is suitable for job applications and urgent visa submissions.

Embassy Attestation for BCA Certificates (For Non-Hague Countries)

If your destination country is not a member of the Hague Convention, you’ll require embassy attestation after MEA authentication.

General Embassy Attestation Process

Step 1: State-Level Attestation (HRD or Home Department)
Depending on the destination country’s requirement, your certificate may be attested by the HRD Department or Home Department of the issuing state.
Step 2: MEA Attestation
Once state-level attestation is complete, the certificate is authenticated by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).
Step 3: Embassy/Consulate Attestation
Finally, the document is attested by the embassy or consulate of the destination country located in India.

This process is essential for countries like UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Egypt, and others that are not part of the Hague Convention.

How to get your documents apostilled/attested

Popular Methods for BCA Degree Certificate in India

Over the years, the following attestation practices have been widely used across India:

1. Home Department Attestation via State Mantralaya

AMIE certificates can be authenticated from the Home Department of your state also known as Mantralaya which is recognized for processing educational documents.
After the Mantralaya attestation, the certificate proceeds to MEA and then to the relevant embassy.

This method is time-tested, cost-efficient, and highly respected by numerous foreign embassies in India.

2. Attestation via SDM and MEA (Alternate Option)

For many countries, attestation from the Sub-Divisional Magistrate, New Delhi, followed by MEA attestation is a valid and accepted process.

This method is often preferred due to quicker processing and lesser bureaucracy compared to state-level authentication.
