BBA Degree Certificate Apostille & Attestation Services in India

Overview
Planning to work or study abroad with your Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) certificate? If your BBA degree is issued in India, it must undergo apostille or attestation to be legally recognized by foreign governments, institutions, or employers.
This comprehensive guide will walk you through the entire apostille and attestation process for Indian-issued BBA certificates, including step-by-step procedures, timeline, verification methods, and special country-specific requirements.
Apostille for Indian-Issued BBA Degree Certificates
The apostille process is applicable when you’re submitting your documents to a country that is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Apostilling your BBA certificate proves its authenticity and eliminates the need for further attestation from that country’s embassy.
There are two widely accepted routes to get your BBA certificate apostilled in India:
1. State HRD / University Verification + MEA Apostille
This traditional route includes:
- Step 1: State Higher Education Department or University Verification
The BBA certificate is authenticated either by the state HRD department (Human Resource Development) or directly by the issuing university. This ensures the degree is legitimate and recognized by the government. - Step 2: Apostille from Ministry of External Affairs (MEA)
Once verified, your BBA degree is submitted to the MEA, which affixes the apostille sticker or stamp.
Note: This route is often required for educational migration, academic equivalency, or university admissions abroad.
2. Notary + SDM + MEA Apostille (Fast-Track Option)
This method is quicker and widely accepted by Hague Convention countries:
- Step 1: Notary Attestation
The certificate is first notarized by a Public Notary to confirm authenticity. - Step 2: Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) Attestation
The notarized document is further attested by the SDM in New Delhi. - Step 3: MEA Apostille
The Ministry of External Affairs then issues the apostille certificate.
This fast-track method is often completed in just 1–2 working days and is preferred when documents are required urgently.

For countries that are not part of the Hague Convention, apostille is not sufficient. Instead, embassy or consulate attestation is mandatory. In such cases, the document must be authenticated by multiple authorities before reaching the foreign embassy.

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.
