Frequently asked questions
Is diploma attestation different from degree attestation?
The stages are similar, but the verifying body is often the state technical education board rather than a university. We confirm the route for your diploma before starting.
Do I need to attest my mark sheets too?
Some employers and licensing bodies want the final mark sheet attested along with the diploma. We check the destination's requirement during the review.
