Apostille for Kazakhstan
Admitted to a medical university in Almaty, Astana, Karaganda or Semey? Thousands of Indian students choose Kazakhstan for MBBS, and their school documents must reach the university authenticated. Kazakhstan has applied the Hague Apostille Convention since 30 January 2001, so the authentication accepted there is the MEA apostille. INFINITYGRO handles the apostille for Kazakhstan from Delhi for students, workers and businesses alike.

apostille
The apostille for Kazakhstan is placed by the Ministry of External Affairs after the Indian document has been checked by the right authority: the school board or state education department for marksheets, the home department or SDM for a birth certificate, a chamber of commerce for company papers. Kazakh universities and state bodies accept the apostilled document, usually with a notarised translation into Kazakh or Russian made in Kazakhstan.
Kazakhstan embassy attestation is not needed – the apostille for Kazakhstan is accepted
Kazakhstan joined the Convention in 2001, India in 2005, and neither raised an objection – so the Embassy of Kazakhstan does not legalise Indian documents that already carry the MEA apostille.
For medical students, Kazakh universities may also run a recognition of the Indian school certificate. The apostille is what makes your 12th certificate acceptable for that process, so it should be done before departure, not after.

Kazakh or Russian translation after the apostille
Official use in Kazakhstan generally needs a translation into Kazakh or Russian, certified by a Kazakh notary. Universities usually arrange this after the student arrives with the apostilled originals. Companies dealing with Kazakh partners often ask for a Russian version of their documents.
We prepare Russian translations of company and personal documents. See our Russian translation services.

Papers that are MEA-ready on issue, such as the Passport Seva PCC, are apostilled directly.
Affidavits – financial support, consent or declarations – are notarised and SDM-attested in Delhi before the apostille.
Board verification for marksheets and chamber attestation for company papers are quoted separately. For a Russian translation of business documents, ask for a combined quote on WhatsApp.
Exporters: Kazakh buyers increasingly ask for apostilled company documents rather than embassy-legalised ones. If you trade with Kazakhstan, one apostilled set of your incorporation certificate and authorisation letter can be reused across several tenders.
