MBA Degree Certificate Apostille & Attestation Services for Indian-Issued Certificates
Overview
If you hold an MBA Degree Certificate from an Indian university and plan to move abroad for employment, further education, or immigration, your document must be legally authenticated. This process ensures that your MBA degree is officially recognized and accepted by foreign institutions, employers, and immigration authorities.
This detailed guide explains the Apostille and Attestation process for India-issued MBA Degree Certificates, including official steps, variations based on destination countries, timelines, and alternate procedures.
Apostille Process for MBA Degree Certificate
Countries like Germany, Netherlands, France, Poland, Australia, Italy, and over 120 others recognize documents with an Apostille sticker issued by India’s Ministry of External Affairs (MEA).
There are two accepted Apostille methods in India:
Option 1: HRD/University Verification + MEA Apostille
This is the most widely accepted and recommended procedure for academic documents.
Step-by-Step Process:
- University or State HRD Attestation
The MBA certificate is verified by the issuing university or the relevant State Education Department (HRD). - Ministry of External Affairs Apostille
Once verified, the document is submitted to the MEA for Apostille stamping.
🕒 Estimated Time: 7–15 working days (may vary by university/state)
✅ Recommended For: Countries with strict academic validation procedures.
Option 2: Notary + SDM + MEA Apostille (Fast Process)
This method is widely used for faster completion and is accepted by most Hague member nations.
Step-by-Step Process:
- Notary Public Attestation
The certificate is notarized by a government-registered notary. - Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM) Attestation
SDM, Delhi, authenticates the notarized document. - MEA Apostille
Final Apostille is issued by the Ministry of External Affairs.
🕒 Estimated Time: 2–3 working days (for most cases)
✅ Best For: Hague countries that accept SDM attestation for academic documents.
Attestation Process for Non-Hague Convention Countries
For countries like the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Bahrain, and Kuwait, Apostille is not valid. These countries require a full Embassy Attestation.
Step-by-Step Process:
- State HRD or University Verification
The document must be authenticated by the respective education department or university. - Ministry of External Affairs Attestation
The MEA places an official attestation stamp on the certificate. - Embassy/Consulate Attestation
The final attestation is completed at the embassy or consulate of the destination country.
🕒 Estimated Time: 10–20 working days (depends on embassy & state)
✅ Required For: All non-Hague countries, especially Gulf nations.
How to get your documents apostilled/attested
Popular Methods for MBA Degree Certificate 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.
