Malaysia is not a Hague Apostille member, so a degree certificate for Malaysia goes through embassy attestation rather than apostille. But Malaysia has a jurisdictional and government check before MEA rule unique among non-Hague destinations: three Malaysian missions in India share the work, and the South Indian one demands MEA apostille (not attestation) before it accepts a document. The Malaysian High Commission in New Delhi covers North India (Delhi, UP, Bihar, Uttarakhand, Haryana, Punjab, J&K, Himachal). The Consulate General of Malaysia in Mumbai covers Maharashtra, Gujarat, Chhattisgarh, MP, Goa and Daman-Diu. The Consulate General of Malaysia in Chennai covers Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Karnataka, Kerala and Puducherry, and Chennai specifically requires MEA APOSTILLE before consular attestation, while the other two missions accept the standard MEA attestation. The government check before MEA step is the same regardless of jurisdiction: State HRD for educational documents, SDM or Home Department for civil. English-language Indian degrees are accepted by most Malaysian recipients without translation, though Bahasa Malaysia translation is sometimes asked for at university or chamber registration.
Start with an embassy-route scan
The main lanes for Malaysia degree submissions. The Employment Pass (EP), which is the main work visa for Indian professionals in IT, engineering, finance, consulting, and academia, mostly in Kuala Lumpur, Cyberjaya, Penang, and Johor Bahru. The Professional Visit Pass (PVP), for short-term technical assignments. The MM2H (Malaysia My Second Home) programme, for income-based long-term residency. And the Student Pass for admission to Malaysian universities like Universiti Malaya, USM, UKM, and the international branch campuses (Monash, Nottingham, Heriot-Watt).
For regulated professions, the Malaysian-side recognition step matters. MQA (Malaysian Qualifications Agency) handles academic recognition for university and many skilled-worker routes. MMC (Malaysian Medical Council) handles doctors. BEM (Board of Engineers Malaysia) handles engineers. BOAM (Board of Architects Malaysia) handles architects. These recognition bodies run separately from the attestation, but the attested degree and any Bahasa Malaysia translation are the inputs to their evaluation.
Send a scan of your degree and transcript on WhatsApp +91-9220161774. Tell us the Malaysian recipient (EP employer, MM2H, MQA, MMC, BEM, university). We will confirm the sequence, the working-day timeline for your State HRD, the Malaysian Embassy in Delhi processing time, and a written quote.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
