भारत से दस्तावेज़ अटेस्टेशन — सऊदी अरब

अपडेट: 2026-10-28 · Apostille Convention सदस्य

AttestGulf एक स्वतंत्र मार्गदर्शन सेवा है। यह कोई सरकारी एजेंसी नहीं है और स्वयं अटेस्टेशन नहीं करती।

मानक रास्ता

MEA Apostille (Hague route)

Saudi Arabia joined the Apostille Convention on 7 Dec 2022, and the Saudi Central Bank has instructed banks to accept apostilled foreign documents without embassy authentication. Many employers and the Saudi Cultural Attaché still process degrees through embassy attestation, so confirm which one your sponsor or ministry accepts before you pay.

अन्य मान्य रास्ते: Saudi Embassy legalisation (traditional route)

Two valid routes exist. Ask your employer, sponsor or the Saudi ministry which they accept (Apostille or embassy attestation) before spending money.

चरण — degree certificate for employment (example)

  1. 1. State authentication of educational document

    State Education / Higher Education Department (Regional Authentication Centre)

    The Ministry of External Affairs legalises documents on the basis of signatures of designated state signing authorities. Educational documents are first authenticated by the issuing state's education department (often called HRD attestation).

FAQ

Is an Apostille enough for Saudi Arabia?
Saudi Arabia is a party to the Apostille Convention (in force 2022-12-07). An MEA Apostille is the Hague route; some employers and ministries still ask for embassy legalisation, so confirm with the receiving authority.
Do I need the original document?
Yes for the India-side steps: MEA does not legalise photocopies, and state authentication and embassy steps are done on the original. Laminated documents may be rejected.
Can I apply directly at MEA?
No. MEA accepts documents only through its outsourced service providers (BLS, Superb, IVS, Alhind) at collection centres in 16 cities. Normal attestation is free; Apostille is Rs 50 per sticker; the agency charges Rs 84 per document plus Rs 3 per page.
