Consular document legalisation: India

Consular legalisation with Hello Emirates

Our service covers document preparation and legalisation support, not just appointment booking. We assist with personal, educational and corporate documents, including certificates, diplomas, official records, company documents and other originals, where the relevant mission accepts them for the action you need. We coordinate specialist work and document handling through trusted partners.

We first establish the route: where the document was issued, the country and organisation where it will be used, and which certifications it already carries. UAE-issued documents for use abroad and foreign documents for use in the UAE can require different certification chains. Consular legalisation, MOFA attestation, copy certification and personal signature witnessing are distinct procedures; we agree the route applicable to your case.

What our support covers

• Initial document and certification-route checks

  We carry out preliminary checks of scans, confirm the mission’s requirements, required originals and completed certification stages. Before documents are handed over, we explain whether the selected procedure applies and what further steps are needed.

• Document-pack preparation

  We provide a checklist and help assemble originals, copies, forms and supporting evidence. If prior certifications in the issuing country or other authorities are required, we separately agree their sequence and whether they can be arranged through partners.

• Translation to the receiving party’s requirements

  Where needed, we arrange translation through specialist translators and confirm the language and translation certification accepted by the mission or receiving organisation. Translation is agreed and charged separately.

• UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) attestation

  We arrange UAE MOFA attestation through a specialist partner after the required prior certifications. This stage is included in support starting from AED 1,500 per document. Its position in the overall certification chain depends on the document’s origin and intended use.

• Consular-stage preparation

  We confirm current submission procedures, document-pack requirements and consular fee arrangements. We explain how appointments are made and what to prepare for the visit. Where the mission requires the applicant to register or book personally, the client does so; our support does not override this rule.

• Submission and collection coordination

  Where the mission permits a representative, we coordinate document handover, submission and collection through a partner, including the required authorisation. Where personal attendance is required, we prepare the pack and instructions for the client’s visit. We do not promise remote witnessing of a personal signature.

• Stage tracking and document return

  We keep you informed of the agreed stages, check progress with the specialists involved and coordinate collection and return of originals by an available method. If the receiving authority asks for additional documents, we agree the next steps. Delivery arrangements are agreed separately.

Pricing and service scope

Support starts from AED 1,500 per document and includes UAE MOFA attestation. Consular fees, translation, delivery and additional certifications are agreed separately before work starts. After checking the document, we agree the stages, price and estimated timing, taking appointment availability and the mission’s processing into account. The relevant authority retains the decision on accepting and certifying the document.

How to get started

Contact us with a scan or clear photograph of the document. Tell us the issuing country, destination and intended use, your nationality, existing certifications and whether you hold the original. We first agree the applicable route and service scope, then document handover and any personal attendance. Preliminary checks can begin remotely; originals and attendance depend on the relevant mission’s rules.

Hello Emirates service support

Contact us to confirm current appointment requirements and agree the scope of support. Requirements can change, and many embassies require the applicant or a citizen of the relevant country to make the booking personally. After reviewing your document, we will clarify the available preparation, submission and collection process, including any stages that require personal participation.
