What does degree certificate apostille in Assam involve?
Degree certificate apostille in Assam is the legalisation of a degree awarded by a university in the state, carried out by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) so the degree is valid in member countries of the Hague Apostille Convention. The MEA attaches a serial-numbered sticker with a QR code to the back of the original.
Before that sticker can be issued, the degree needs pre-authentication. Assam graduates can get it from the designated Assam Government authority (the State HRD route) or from a Notary Public followed by a Sub-Divisional Magistrate in Delhi (the SDM route). Degrees bound for non-member countries such as the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait receive MEA attestation and then embassy legalisation.
What our degree certificate apostille in Assam service covers
Knowing the split of responsibilities upfront saves weeks of back-and-forth. INFINITYGRO manages the Delhi-based stages: Notary, SDM, MEA and embassy.
We do not verify degrees with universities or obtain State HRD authentication from Dispur. When a destination requires those, the certificate holder applies directly, and we continue from the MEA step.

Degree certificate apostille in Assam for major cities
From Upper Assam to the Barak Valley, the steps are identical: visit our Delhi office or courier your degree, and receive it back when the MEA or embassy stage is done.
These notes cover what applicants from each city tend to ask.
Degree Certificate Apostille in Guwahati
Guwahati generates the largest share of requests for degree certificate apostille in Assam. The city is home to Gauhati University, Cotton University, IIT Guwahati, Srimanta Sankaradeva University of Health Sciences and Krishna Kanta Handiqui State Open University. Graduates heading for master's programmes abroad usually find the SDM route the quickest.
The Assam Secretariat is in Dispur, within the city, which makes the State HRD route practical when a sponsor demands it.
MEA Apostille Services for Dibrugarh Graduates
Dibrugarh University and Assam Medical College draw students from across Upper Assam. Doctors and nurses from here often apply to licensing bodies abroad that set their own document rules, so check those rules before picking a route.
Courier from Dibrugarh to our Delhi office is simple, and your originals come back the same way.
Certificate Apostille Agency for Silchar
Barak Valley graduates from Assam University, NIT Silchar and Silchar Medical College can finish the SDM route entirely by courier. Many engineering graduates here target study or work in Europe and North America, where an MEA apostille is the standard requirement.
Gulf-bound applicants should confirm whether State HRD authentication is needed first.
Degree Apostille and SDM Attestation in Jorhat
Jorhat's institutions include Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat Engineering College, Kaziranga University and Assam Women's University. Agriculture and engineering graduates heading abroad for research positions commonly need an apostille.
Send your degree by courier and we manage the Notary, SDM and MEA stages in Delhi.
Apostille Services for Tezpur
Graduates of Tezpur University and Tezpur Medical College can use either route. If your offer letter mentions only an apostille, the SDM route avoids a trip to Dispur altogether.
Apostille for Nagaon, Bongaigaon and Kokrajhar
Applicants from Nagaon, Bongaigaon and Kokrajhar, including graduates of Bodoland University, follow the same two routes. Courier works well from all three towns, with tracked return delivery.

Gulf countries needing embassy legalisation
The UAE, Qatar and Kuwait are outside the convention. Degrees going there need MEA attestation and then embassy legalisation, and sponsors frequently insist on State HRD authentication for educational documents.

Degree certificate apostille in Assam: frequently asked questions
What are the two ways to complete degree certificate apostille in Assam?
The State HRD route starts with authentication by the designated Government of Assam authority, followed by an MEA apostille. The SDM route starts with Notary authorisation and SDM attestation in Delhi, followed by an MEA apostille. For non-Hague countries, both routes end with MEA attestation and embassy legalisation instead of an apostille.
Where can I find the official Assam Higher Education / HRD portal?
The official website of the Higher Education Department, Government of Assam, is highereducation.assam.gov.in, and the Directorate of Higher Education has its own site at directorateofhighereducation.assam.gov.in. The MEA's list of State authentication authorities for Assam names offices in the Home Department at Dispur, the Director of Technical Education in Guwahati and the Resident Commissioner of Assam in New Delhi. Confirm the current desk before applying.
Does INFINITYGRO do HRD attestation or university verification for Assam degrees?
No. We handle Notary and SDM attestation, MEA apostille, MEA attestation and embassy legalisation. If your destination needs State HRD authentication, you arrange it directly with the Assam Government, and we take over from the MEA stage.
Is there an MEA office in Guwahati where I can submit my degree myself?
The MEA has a Branch Secretariat in Guwahati, but it does not accept apostille applications directly from individuals. Documents reach the MEA through its authorised outsourced service providers. With INFINITYGRO, you visit our Delhi office or courier your degree, and we manage the submission for you.
Can I visit your Delhi office, or do I have to use courier?
Either works. Our office is at C-5 A/2 New Ashok Nagar, Delhi 110096, open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. If you are in Assam, send your documents by tracked courier and we will return them the same way after completion.
How do I courier my degree from Guwahati, Dibrugarh or Silchar safely?
Message us on WhatsApp for the checklist first. Keep certificates flat in a rain-proof envelope without lamination, enclose your passport copy and signed authorisation letter, and send the parcel by tracked courier or Speed Post. Share the tracking number so we can confirm delivery.
Which route suits a Jorhat or Tezpur graduate going abroad to study?
For admissions and credential evaluation in Hague member countries, the SDM route is usually the faster choice because it skips State and university processing. If the foreign university or visa office specifically names State HRD authentication, use Process 1 instead.
Do Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait accept an apostille on an Assam degree?
Saudi Arabia, along with Bahrain and Oman, is a Hague Convention member, so an MEA apostille is generally accepted; Saudi membership took effect on 7 December 2022. The UAE, Qatar and Kuwait are not members, so degrees for those countries need MEA attestation plus embassy legalisation. Always check your sponsor's specific instructions.
How much does degree certificate apostille in Assam cost?
Pricing depends on your route, destination, whether embassy legalisation is required, the number of documents and how you submit them. See our degree certificate apostille and attestation fees page for the detailed structure, or WhatsApp +91-8595558517 for an itemised quote.
I studied at Gauhati University but now work in another state. Can I still apply?
Yes. Visit our Delhi office or courier your documents from wherever you are, and we return them to your current address. If you need the State HRD route, authentication stays with Assam because the degree was issued there. The Resident Commissioner of Assam's office in New Delhi also appears on the MEA's list of authorities.
