Embassy Attestation
Certificate Attestation Services in Kolkata
Certificate attestation in Kolkata helps IT, finance, and corporate professionals going to UK, USA, or Gulf and others get their Indian degree, birth, marriage, and other certificates attested for United Kingdom and UAE and other countries. West Bengal HRD typically takes 25-45 days. If a visa application or employer deadline is approaching, plan for this lead time. Degree, marksheets, university registration, and identity should be consistent before submission. SiZA Global reviews Kolkata documents via scan first, coordinates West Bengal HRD where needed, and returns completed documents with tracked delivery, no Noida visit required.
West Bengal HRD runs slower than most state HRDs. That single fact shapes Kolkata attestation timelines more than any other factor: a file that would clear Karnataka or Gujarat in 10-15 working days routinely needs 25-35 working days through the West Bengal state authority, and Calcutta University verification (mandatory for most CU-affiliated colleges) adds 3-6 weeks on top depending on the season. Plan the Kolkata-side timeline first, then back-solve the embassy and visa deadlines from there.
Kolkata's outbound attestation flow is heavy on the Gulf labour and healthcare corridor (Saudi (now mostly apostille after the 2022 Hague accession), UAE, Kuwait, Qatar) and a smaller-but-consistent commercial flow tied to Eastern India's trading houses. Nurses and technicians from CMC, RG Kar, NRS, Calcutta Medical College and the regional nursing institutions move on QCHP, DHA, DOH, MOH UAE, Kuwait MOH, NHRA, and OMSB; DataFlow PSV runs in parallel. Civil documents from Kolkata Municipal Corporation and the various West Bengal district authorities go through the state-level chain before MEA.

What is embassy attestation?
Embassy attestation is the India-side legalisation route for countries that are NOT members of the Hague Apostille Convention, UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Libya, Egypt, and a smaller set of others. The Indian document goes through state-level authentication (SDM, HRD, Home Department, or Chamber of Commerce depending on document type), then MEA attestation, then attestation at the destination country's embassy or consulate in India. UAE MOFA attestation now also happens in India alongside the UAE Embassy step.
What customers from this city say
“Moving to Dubai with family means getting marriage certificate and birth certificates properly attested. SiZA explained the full chain — SDM, MEA, UAE embassy, and VFS. They picked up documents from Ahmedabad and returned everything safely. The doorstep service made it so much easier.”

“I needed marriage certificate and kids' birth certificates attested for UAE family visa. SiZA explained what SDM attestation involves, handled the full chain, and returned all original documents safely.

Fatima Shaikh
Family visa, UAE residency
Pune, India
“Saudi embassy attestation for my chartered accountancy degree involved SDM first because it's a personal document, then MEA, then Saudi embassy. SiZA mapped out the sequence on our first call and didn't start until I had all originals ready. Got the attestation done in time for my joining date.”

Finance professional, Saudi employment visa
