Apostille & Attestation Services in Pune
Apostille and attestation for Pune's IT professionals, students, international graduates and manufacturers, with pickup across Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad.
Pune combines a large student population with a technology and manufacturing economy, and our work here reflects both. Software professionals in Hinjewadi, Kharadi and Magarpatta relocate abroad with their families; graduates of Pune's universities apply for study and jobs overseas; and manufacturers in Chakan and Pimpri-Chinchwad send commercial documents to foreign buyers and partners.
We collect documents from homes, offices, campuses and factories across Pune and Pimpri-Chinchwad and return them by courier. Our head office is in Mumbai.
How Maharashtra documents are authenticated
Before the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) issues an Apostille or attestation, most documents are authenticated by the state that issued them. For Maharashtra documents, that typically means:
- Educational: verification by the university or board where needed, then the state's education department. Common Pune issuers include Savitribai Phule Pune University, Symbiosis International University and other deemed universities, and the Maharashtra State Board of Secondary and Higher Secondary Education, which is headquartered in Pune.
- Personal: the Home Department or General Administration Department, for documents such as birth and death certificates from the Pune and Pimpri Chinchwad municipal corporations.
- Commercial: attestation by a Chamber of Commerce, after notarisation where required.
Documents issued outside Maharashtra — common among people who moved to Pune for work — go through their own issuing state instead.
International students who studied in Pune
Pune's universities attract many students from abroad. If you completed a degree here and need it recognised at home, the route depends on your country: an MEA Apostille for countries where the Apostille Convention applies with India such as Indonesia, Oman or Vietnam (since 11 September 2026 — a very recent change, so confirm with the receiving authority), or embassy attestation for countries such as Iraq and Jordan. Thailand remains on the embassy route until the Convention takes effect there on 28 February 2027.
Moving abroad for work
IT professionals usually need degree certificates, transcripts and experience certificates, plus a marriage certificate for a spouse's visa. If you are relocating to Germany, note that Indian Apostilles are not valid there; German authorities may ask for a separate verification procedure, so check with them first.

I am an international student who graduated in Pune. Can you legalise my degree for my home country?
Yes. The route depends on your country: an MEA Apostille where the Apostille Convention applies with India, or MEA attestation followed by your embassy's legalisation where it does not. Tell us your destination through the Service Finder.
Do you collect from Hinjewadi and Pimpri-Chinchwad?
Yes. We arrange pickup from homes and offices across Pune, including Hinjewadi, Kharadi, Magarpatta and Pimpri-Chinchwad, and return documents by courier.
My degree is from the University of Mumbai, but I live in Pune. Does that change anything?
No. Both cities are in Maharashtra, so the same state authentication applies. What matters is the state that issued the document, not the city you live in.
Do export documents need Chamber of Commerce attestation?
Usually, yes. Commercial documents such as invoices, certificates of origin and agreements are typically attested by a Chamber of Commerce, after notarisation where required, before the MEA stage.
Not sure which route your document needs?
