Birth Certificate Apostille in Dehradun
Dehradun’s boarding schools send students to universities in the UK, USA and Canada every year, and the city’s military families move often. Both groups end up needing an apostilled birth certificate. Whether yours was issued by Nagar Nigam Dehradun, the Cantonment Board or a hill-town registrar, we get it apostilled by MEA.

Cantonment certificates and births away from home
Children born at the military hospital or within cantonment limits are usually registered by the Cantonment Board, not Nagar Nigam. Both are valid registrars and MEA apostilles their certificates the same way.
Military and paramilitary families often have children born in another posting – Pune, Ambala, Shillong. The certificate comes from that place’s registrar, even if you now live in Dehradun. We apostille it all the same.
Boarding-school students usually need the birth certificate for university admission, visa applications or a gap-year job abroad. Get it apostilled before the final school term – it saves a rushed courier later.
Dehradun is close to Delhi – parents visiting the city can drop the certificate at our office and collect it a few days later.

Most universities accept the passport as proof of age at the application stage, but the apostilled birth certificate often comes up later:
- Student visas for minors, where parents’ details must be proven.
- Residence registration in European university towns.

Doing it during the last school term avoids a scramble before departure. More on this: birth certificate apostille in Uttarakhand.
