Apostille for Belarus
Studying medicine in Minsk, Grodno, Vitebsk or Gomel? Belarusian state medical universities enrol a steady stream of Indian students every year. Belarus applies the Hague Apostille Convention (since 31 May 1992, as a successor state), so the authentication on Indian documents is the MEA apostille. INFINITYGRO completes the apostille for Belarus in Delhi and keeps families informed until the documents are back.

apostille
Belarusian universities want Indian school documents with the apostille for Belarus: the 10th and 12th papers are verified by the board or state education department, the birth certificate by the home department or SDM, and the MEA then adds its apostille. After arrival, a Russian or Belarusian translation certified by a notary in Belarus completes the file.
Belarus embassy attestation is not needed – the apostille for Belarus is
Belarus and India are both in the Apostille Convention, so the Embassy of Belarus in New Delhi does not legalise Indian public documents. Belarusian institutions accept the MEA apostille as final.
Many students first join a preparatory faculty to learn Russian before the main course. Universities usually ask for the apostilled 12th certificate at that first enrolment, so it should travel with the student from day one.
