B.Sc Nursing Degree Certificate Apostille & Attestation Services in India

Overview

If you’re planning to pursue a nursing job, medical licensing, higher education, or immigration abroad, you’ll likely need to get your B.Sc Nursing certificate attested or apostilled. Most countries require authenticated educational qualifications as part of their visa or registration processes for foreign-trained nurses.

This comprehensive guide explains the apostille and embassy attestation procedures for India-issued B.Sc Nursing Degree Certificates, including the different processing routes, department-wise verification, timelines, and important country-specific instructions.

Apostille Process for B.Sc Nursing Certificate Issued in India

The apostille is a simplified certificate verification process recognized by Hague Convention member countries. Once your B.Sc Nursing certificate is apostilled by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Government of India, it becomes legally valid for use in all Hague Convention countries without further embassy legalization.

There are two accepted methods to get your B.Sc Nursing certificate apostilled:

1. Apostille via State Nursing Council / HRD Authentication

Step 1: State-Level Authentication
- Your B.Sc Nursing certificate is first verified by the State Higher Education Department, Nursing Council, or HRD, depending on the issuing authority and state guidelines.
Step 2: Apostille by MEA
- After state authentication, the certificate is forwarded to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) for apostille stamping.

This route is preferred by countries requiring direct authentication from the issuing state’s educational authority or health department. However, it may take longer due to internal verification processes.

2. Apostille via Notary and SDM (Fast-Track Method)

This faster alternative is widely accepted by many countries:

Step 1: Notary Attestation
- Your B.Sc Nursing certificate is first attested by a licensed Notary Public.
Step 2: SDM Attestation
- Then attested by the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) in New Delhi.
Step 3: Apostille by MEA
- Finally, the MEA issues the apostille on your nursing certificate.

This fast-track process is usually completed within 2 working days, making it ideal for nurses applying for urgent placements or license assessments abroad.

Embassy Attestation for B.Sc Nursing Certificate (For Non-Hague Convention Countries)

If your destination country is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, you’ll require embassy or consulate attestation in addition to the MEA attestation.

Embassy Attestation Procedure

Step 1: State or SDM Attestation
- Your B.Sc Nursing certificate must be authenticated by either the State Nursing Council/HRD/Home Department or SDM, depending on embassy norms.
Step 2: MEA Attestation
- The document is then attested by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).
Step 3: Embassy/Consulate Legalization
- The final attestation is completed at the embassy or consulate of the destination country in India.

Different embassies may have additional requirements such as document translation, passport copies, or notarized affidavits.

How to get your documents apostilled/attested

Popular Methods for B.SC Nursing Degree Attestation 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.
