I've heard there might be a way to get an apostille online in India. Is this a legitimate option, or should I stick with the traditional apostille process?
That's a great question! As of right now, there isn't a fully online system for getting an apostille on documents in India. However, there have been initiatives to make the process more streamlined. Here's the breakdown:
* **eSanad Service:** The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) in India has launched an online document verification/attestation/apostille service called eSanad. This service allows Indian citizens to submit documents electronically for verification by the issuing authority. However, it currently doesn't cover the final apostille step, which still requires physical submission of the verified document to the MEA for the official apostille sticker.
* **Traditional Process:** For now, the traditional process for getting an apostille in India involves submitting your documents physically to an authorized official, often at a Regional Authentication Centre (RAC) or through a designated agent.
**Here's what you can do:**
* **Check the MEA website:** The MEA website ([https://www.mea.gov.in/apostille.htm]) has the latest information on apostille procedures, including updates on eSanad and any potential future developments for online apostille issuance.
* **Consider a service provider:** While not strictly "online," some authorized agents or service providers can help you navigate the apostille process. They can handle document collection, submission, and communication with the MEA on your behalf.for more information you can contact us at NRIWAY
