MEA Apostille
Apostille Services in Kochi
Apostille services in Kochi helps Nurses going to Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, UAE, Qatar, or Bahrain and others get their Indian degree, birth, marriage, and other certificates apostilled for Saudi Arabia and Kuwait and other countries. Kerala HRD requires all original documents from Class 10 onward, SSC, HSC, nursing diploma or degree, and university certificate must be submitted together, not one at a time. For nurses going to Gulf, this means the nursing certificate, HSC, and degree are all part of one submission. Plan accordingly before courier. SiZA Global reviews Kochi documents via scan first, coordinates Kerala HRD where needed, and returns completed documents with tracked delivery, no Noida visit required.
Apostille services in Kochi run through Kerala HRD for educational documents and through the Kerala Home Department or SDM offices for civil documents. Kerala has a specific HRD rule that catches applicants out: Kerala HRD authenticates educational documents from Class 10 (SSC) onwards, earlier educational records do not go through HRD. For documents from Kerala-state universities (Kerala University, Mahatma Gandhi University, Cochin University of Science and Technology, Kannur University) and the Kerala medical / nursing colleges, the issuing-institution verification step is typically required.
Kochi's outbound flow is dominated by the Gulf healthcare and skilled-worker corridor, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain and Oman are the largest single-region destinations for Kerala nurses, doctors, technicians, paramedical professionals and skilled workers. The nursing-council registration + good standing certificate + degree + experience certificate set is the standard healthcare-licensing file that runs alongside DataFlow primary-source verification (parallel, not sequential). Civil documents (marriage, birth) follow alongside for family-residence-visa renewal at the destination.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is an apostille?
An apostille is a single official stamp issued by India's Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) on the back of an Indian document. Once placed, the document is accepted in any country that is a member of the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention, about 125 countries today, including the USA, UK, Italy, Germany, France, Saudi Arabia (since 2022), and Canada (since 2024). For non-Hague destinations such as UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Libya, and Egypt, MEA apostille alone is not enough, the document needs MEA attestation plus the destination country's embassy attestation in India.

“Czech Blue Card required apostilled degree, work experience letters, and a certified Czech translation of my degree.

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.
