Overview

Document Attestation

Document attestation is the process of authenticating documents for use abroad. It involves verification at multiple levels — from the issuing authority to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) and finally the embassy of the destination country. We handle attestation of educational certificates (degrees, transcripts, diplomas), personal documents (birth certificates, marriage certificates, affidavits), and commercial documents (company registrations, power of attorney, invoices).

Who Needs This?

Anyone who needs to use Indian or French documents in another country — for employment, higher education, business registration, family reunification, or legal proceedings abroad.
