Apostille Services in Mumbai: Apostille and Attestation
Looking for apostille services in Mumbai? Mumbai files reach our Delhi office quickly by courier, and from there we handle the notary, SDM attestation, the MEA apostille or attestation, and the embassy in New Delhi. Exporters and companies in Mumbai also use us for commercial document attestation, and we arrange Maharashtra HRD attestation when a degree needs it.
Apostille services in Mumbai: quick answer
A Mumbai document reaches our Delhi office in a day or two by courier. We get it notarised and attested by the SDM, and the MEA apostille is usually done within 2–3 working days of arrival before it travels back to you.
Exporters and families moving to Dubai, Doha or Kuwait need attestation services in Mumbai instead: MEA attestation, then that country’s embassy in New Delhi, with an embassy fee set by each country.
Why Mumbai files are processed in Delhi
Mumbai has consulates of many countries, but the SDM attestation we use and the embassies that legalise documents for most of our clients are in New Delhi. Keeping every stage in one city avoids posting papers back and forth between Mumbai and Delhi.
A large share of our Mumbai work is commercial: Certificates of Origin, invoices, Power of Attorney and board resolutions for buyers in the Gulf and Africa, alongside personal documents for families moving to Canada, the UK, Australia and the Gulf.

Where Mumbai documents usually go
Mumbai sends documents everywhere, but two flows stand out. Families and professionals moving to the UK, Canada, Australia and the USA need the apostille. Traders shipping to the Gulf, East Africa and Iraq need commercial papers attested by a chamber, the MEA and the buyer’s embassy.
Seafarers and hospitality staff from Mumbai also use us for experience certificates and marksheets going to the Gulf and to cruise employers in Europe.
- UK, Canada, Australia, USA: apostille
- UAE, Qatar, Kuwait: MEA attestation + embassy
- Iraq, Egypt, Jordan (trade papers): chamber + MEA + embassy

Maharashtra HRD attestation
Maharashtra is one of the 16 States where we arrange State HRD attestation. If the university has already put its “found & verified” stamp on the degree, it usually takes 10–15 working days; otherwise 35–40. Add it only when your checklist names HRD. See the States, universities and documents on our HRD attestation page. MEA attestation in Mumbai files then follows in Delhi as usual.

Mistakes we see in Mumbai files
- Sending the Certificate of Origin without the matching invoice for the same shipment.
- Maharashtra HRD without the university’s found & verified stamp, which makes it much slower.
- Getting an apostille on a document meant for Dubai: the UAE needs attestation and the UAE Embassy stamp.
- Name differences between the marriage certificate and the passports.
Apostille services in Mumbai: FAQs
Where can I get apostille services in Mumbai?
Courier the original to INFINITYGRO in New Ashok Nagar, Delhi. We handle every counter and send it back to your Mumbai address by tracked courier. No home pickup.
Do you attest commercial documents for Mumbai exporters?
Yes: Certificates of Origin, invoices, Power of Attorney, board resolutions and company papers, through a Chamber of Commerce, the MEA and, where needed, the embassy. Each is quoted separately.
What is the found & verified stamp for Maharashtra HRD?
It is the university’s own verification stamp on the degree. With it, Maharashtra HRD usually takes 10–15 working days through us; without it, 35–40.
Can a BMC birth certificate from the 1990s be apostilled?
Yes, if it is legible, carries the issuing seal and the name matches the passport. If the seal has faded, get a fresh copy from the BMC ward office first.
Is a document for Dubai apostilled or attested?
Attested. The UAE is not in the Apostille Convention, so the document needs MEA attestation, the UAE Embassy stamp and then UAE MOFA.
What do apostille services in Mumbai cost?
Notary, SDM attestation and the MEA apostille are charged together per document; the current figure is in the charges table on this page. Courier to Mumbai and other locations in India is charged according to distance, and courier outside India is extra.
