Wedding Certificate Apostille & Attestation Services

There are two commonly followed procedures to get an Salary Certificate apostilled:

1. Apostille via HRD or State-Level Authentication (Longer Process)

• Step 1: State-level Authentication
  • Your AMIE certificate is first authenticated by the Department of Higher Education, under the Ministry of Human Resource Development (HRD) or the respective State Home Department, depending on where the certificate was issued.
• Step 2: Apostille by MEA
  • After authentication from the concerned state or HRD department, the document is sent to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) for the final apostille.

This process is often used for countries with strict verification norms and can take longer due to multiple layers of verification.

2. Apostille via Notary & SDM (Faster Process)

This method is widely accepted and offers a much faster turnaround, typically within two working days.

• Step 1: Notary Public Attestation
  • Your AMIE certificate is notarized by a certified notary public.
• Step 2: SDM Attestation
  • The notarized certificate is further attested by the Sub-Divisional Magistrate (SDM), New Delhi.
• Step 3: MEA Apostille
  • Finally, the Ministry of External Affairs apostilles the SDM-attested certificate.

This streamlined method is ideal for most countries that accept apostilles under the Hague Convention framework.
