Apostille for Montenegro

Recruited for a summer job in a hotel on the Adriatic coast, a construction site in Podgorica, or setting up a company in Montenegro? Montenegro has been bound by the Hague Apostille Convention since 3 June 2006, so Indian public documents are authenticated with the MEA apostille. INFINITYGRO completes the apostille for Montenegro in Delhi, usually starting with the police clearance.

Quick answer

For an apostille for Montenegro, a Passport Seva PCC goes straight to the MEA; degrees, diplomas and trade certificates are verified at source; birth and marriage certificates through the home department or SDM. Montenegrin employers and the police directorate accept the apostilled documents with a translation by a court interpreter.

Embassy or apostille?

Montenegro embassy attestation is not needed – the apostille for Montenegro is

Montenegro became an independent party to the Convention in 2006 and it applies with India, so no Montenegrin consular legalisation is involved once the MEA apostille is on the document.

Hotels and resorts often recruit before the summer season, so the timing of the police clearance and its apostille matters. We prioritise PCCs for seasonal workers.
