Need to submit marksheets abroad? An MEA apostille makes Indian educational documents valid in Hague Convention countries.
VerifiedApostille selects the correct path based on your State/university and the recipient’s checklist.
Sticker vs e-Apostille (QR) & e-Sanad
- Sticker Apostille (physical): MEA sticker on the document — common for visa/immigration.
- e-Apostille (QR): MEA digital apostille with QR verification — faster when copies are accepted.
- e-Sanad: official digital pipeline for supported Boards/Universities; used where available.
For non-Hague destinations, we continue the chain to Embassy/Consulate attestation after MEA.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do marksheets need HRD or is SDM enough?
Many destinations prefer HRD/Education for higher-education docs; some accept SDM. We follow the recipient’s written checklist and your State’s policy to choose the shortest compliant route.
Do I have to send original marksheets?
Sticker apostille often requires originals. If your recipient allows, e-Apostille (QR) on notarized copies can work and keeps your originals safe.
Is e-Sanad available for my university/board?
If your Board/University is on e-Sanad, we prefer that digital route. Some institutions add genuineness/verification fees; timelines vary.
Which sheets should I apostille—semester-wise or consolidated?
Follow the receiving authority’s list. Many ask for degree + consolidated (or final semester). We’ll confirm the minimum valid set after review.
How long will it take?
SDM: ~2–3 working days once in process. HRD/e-Sanad depends on State/university verification and can take longer. We confirm a firm ETA upfront.
What does it cost?
Our SDM bundle for many marksheet cases is ₹2,000 per document (Notary + SDM (Delhi) + MEA + secure return). If HRD/e-Sanad is required, we quote it separately after verifying your route. Prices current as of 2025-09-28.
Can you deliver abroad?
Yes — we ship worldwide via DHL, Blue Dart, or other standard couriers with tracking and insurance.
Lost or damaged marksheet—can I use a duplicate?
Yes, if it’s officially reissued by your Board/University. We’ll advise if a fresh reprint is recommended before apostille.
