UkraineApostille, Attestation & Document Services from India

Ukraine is a Hague Apostille member, so MEA apostille from India remains the final India-side stamp for documents going to Ukraine. Many medical and engineering Indian students who studied at Kyiv Medical University, Bogomolets, Kharkiv National Medical University, or Vinnytsia before 2022 now need apostilled transfer certificates, transcripts, and degree certificates from Ukrainian universities for use in third countries, and Indian-side apostille for documents going the other way. Active travel and new admissions to Ukraine are currently affected by the ongoing conflict; check the latest MEA travel advisory.

Ukraine has been a Hague Apostille member since 22 December 2003. MEA apostille from India remains the final India-side stamp. Many Indian students from Ukrainian medical universities now need apostille on Ukrainian-issued transfer certificates and transcripts for use in third countries, alongside the Indian-side apostille for documents going the other way.

Ukraine has been a Hague Apostille member since 22 December 2003 and accepts MEA apostille from India. Active travel and new admissions to Ukraine are affected by the ongoing conflict; check current MEA advisories. Most of our current Ukraine workload is Indian-side handling of Ukrainian-issued degrees, transcripts, and transfer certificates from Indian students who studied at Ukrainian medical universities before 2022 and are now using those documents in third countries or for FMGE or NExT in India.

Overview

The Ukraine desk for us looks very different from before 2022. Active new admissions and travel to Ukraine are affected by the ongoing conflict and Indian government travel advisories, which families should check on the MEA website before any travel decision. What we see most now is paperwork tied to Indian students who studied at Kyiv Medical University, Bogomolets, Kharkiv National Medical University, Vinnytsia, Ternopil, or other Ukrainian universities before 2022, who transferred to medical universities in Georgia, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, or back to India, and who now need their Ukrainian-issued transfer certificates, transcripts, mark sheets, and degree certificates apostilled for use in those third countries.

For documents going from India to Ukraine, the chain is the standard Hague chain: State HRD on educational documents, SDM or Home on personal documents, then MEA apostille. Ukrainian translation is usually required by the receiving Ukrainian authority.

For documents going from Ukraine into a third country or back to India, the apostille happens in Ukraine, not in India. We do not run Ukrainian-side apostille, but we do handle the document chain on the Indian side once the Ukrainian apostilled documents arrive and need to be used here for FMGE, NExT, or further studies.

Family reunion files, where one spouse is Indian and the other holds Ukrainian citizenship, sit between two consular jurisdictions. Marriage and birth certificates from India need MEA apostille; certificates from Ukraine need Ukrainian apostille. Both sides are required for the file to move.

Timeline, Cost Factors & Rejection Risks

Typical Timeline

India-to-Ukraine apostille files take 7 to 15 working days from State HRD readiness. Ukrainian-side apostille on Ukrainian-issued documents is handled in Ukraine and is not our process; we package the Indian-side use after they arrive.

Cost Depends On

Document type and issuing state
HRD requirement for educational documents
Ukrainian translation page count where required
Whether the document is going from India to Ukraine or from Ukraine to a third country
Pickup city and urgency

Common Rejection Reasons

Confusing Ukrainian-side apostille (done in Ukraine) with Indian-side apostille (done by MEA)
Missing State HRD for educational documents
Ignoring current travel and entry conditions to Ukraine
Name mismatch across passport, degree, and supporting documents

Important Information & Requirements

Ukraine has been a Hague Apostille member since 22 December 2003. MEA apostille from India is the final India-side stamp.

Active travel and new admissions to Ukraine are affected by the ongoing conflict. Check the latest MEA advisory before any travel-or-application decision.

For Indian students who studied in Ukraine before 2022 and transferred to third-country medical universities, their Ukrainian-issued documents need apostille on the Ukrainian side. We handle the Indian-side use of those documents (FMGE, NExT, further studies) once they arrive.

For documents going from India to Ukraine, State HRD or SDM or Home plus MEA apostille is the chain. Ukrainian translation is usually required.

For Indo-Ukrainian family reunion files, both sides of the chain are required. The Indian side is our scope; the Ukrainian side is the Ukrainian apostille authority.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Ukraine accept MEA apostille from India?

Yes. Ukraine has been a Hague Apostille member since 22 December 2003. MEA apostille from India is the final India-side stamp. Ukrainian translation by a translator the receiving Ukrainian authority recognises is usually required after apostille.

I studied medicine in Ukraine before 2022 and now I am back in India. How does FMGE or NExT work for my Ukrainian degree?

For FMGE or NExT in India, the National Medical Commission usually wants the Ukrainian-issued degree, transcripts, and internship completion certificates to be apostilled on the Ukrainian side (by the Ministry of Education and Science of Ukraine or the relevant Ukrainian authority). We do not run Ukrainian-side apostille. Once the documents arrive in India with the Ukrainian apostille on them, we handle any India-side packaging the NMC file requires.

My child was born in Ukraine and we are now living in India. What apostille is needed for the birth certificate?

A birth certificate issued in Ukraine needs Ukrainian-side apostille from the Ukrainian Ministry of Justice or the relevant Ukrainian authority. Indian authorities will accept the apostilled Ukrainian birth certificate for civil registration, passport, and education uses, usually alongside a certified translation into English. We help on the Indian side once the apostilled Ukrainian document arrives.

Degree HRD from Maharashtra, then MEA apostille, then Qatar embassy attestation — a long chain. SiZA tracked every step and gave me realistic timelines for Maharashtra HRD before starting. All documents delivered before my Qatar joining date. I had no idea the process was this manageable with the right support.

My UK university needed apostilled degree and marksheets. SiZA picked up documents from Chandigarh through their courier pickup process. Everything came back apostilled and on time. They also reviewed my checklist and confirmed I didn't need Punjab HRD for this particular submission — saved me extra time.

Czech Blue Card required apostilled degree, work experience letters, and a certified Czech translation of my degree. SiZA arranged the Maharashtra HRD first — which they told me upfront is required for degrees from Pune University — then MEA apostille, then the Czech translation. The Czech embassy accepted everything first attempt.

AHPRA skills assessment required apostilled pharmacy degree and internship certificate. I was confused about whether Tamil Nadu HRD attestation was needed first. SiZA clarified it clearly — TN HRD is required before MEA for degree apostille. They handled both steps. My documents reached AHPRA exactly as required.
