Degree Certificate Apostille in Haryana: MEA Apostille, SDM Attestation and Embassy Legalisation Next Door in Delhi
Getting a degree certificate apostille in Haryana is straightforward with INFINITYGRO, whether you studied at Kurukshetra University, MDU Rohtak, Guru Jambheshwar University or a private campus in Gurugram or Sonipat. We get your degree certified by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) so it is accepted by universities, employers and immigration offices overseas.

What is involved in degree certificate apostille in Haryana?
Degree certificate apostille in Haryana is the process by which the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) certifies a degree awarded by a Haryana university, making it valid in countries that have adopted the Hague Apostille Convention. The MEA attaches a sticker with a unique serial number and QR code to the reverse of the original degree.
The MEA certifies only what has already been pre-authenticated. Haryana graduates can get that pre-authentication from the authorities designated by the Government of Haryana (the State HRD route) or from a Notary Public and Sub-Divisional Magistrate in Delhi (the SDM route). Countries that are not convention members, such as the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait, require MEA attestation plus embassy legalisation instead.

- Confirm your university can respond if the State asks it to verify the degree.
- Book or confirm your visit through the Department of Higher Education portal, which has offered online appointment booking with the Directorate, or ask Haryana Bhawan's Resident Commissioner office in New Delhi.
- Carry the original degree, all semester mark sheets, a passport photocopy and the offer or admission letter that explains why you need authentication.
- Submit at Shiksha Sadan, Panchkula, and collect the degree once it has been stamped.
- Hand it to INFINITYGRO at our office or by courier for the MEA and embassy stages.
The MEA list is a reference and designations change over time. Confirm the present process before you submit originals in Panchkula.

City-wise degree certificate apostille in Haryana
From the NCR belt to the western districts bordering Rajasthan, the process is identical: visit our Delhi office or courier your degree, and receive it back after the MEA or embassy stage.
Here is guidance for applicants from Haryana's main cities.
Degree Certificate Apostille in Gurugram
Gurugram's corporate workforce generates a steady flow of requests for degree certificate apostille in Haryana, often for intra-company transfers to the UK, Europe or Singapore. Graduates of Amity University Gurugram, SGT University, The NorthCap University and Gurugram University frequently choose the SDM route.
Many Gurugram professionals drop documents at our office on a Saturday to avoid missing work.
MEA Apostille Services for Faridabad
Faridabad, home to J.C. Bose University of Science and Technology (YMCA) and Manav Rachna University, is a short drive from our East Delhi office. Engineers from its industrial belt often move to Germany or Canada, where an MEA apostille is the usual requirement.
Office drop-off and collection work well for Faridabad residents.
Apostille Support for Haryana Applicants in Chandigarh and Panchkula
The Haryana Civil Secretariat is in Chandigarh, and the Directorate of Higher Education sits next door in Panchkula, so applicants here are well placed for the State HRD route. Note that Chandigarh itself is a union territory: degrees issued by Panjab University are authenticated through the Chandigarh Administration, not Haryana.
Certificate Apostille Agency for Ambala
Ambala applicants include many graduates of Maharishi Markandeshwar University at Mullana, particularly in nursing, medicine and engineering. Healthcare professionals bound for the UK, Ireland or the Gulf should check their regulator's document rules before picking a route.
Tracked courier makes degree certificate apostille in Haryana quick and dependable for Ambala residents.
Degree Apostille and SDM Attestation in Rohtak
Maharshi Dayanand University, Pt. B.D. Sharma University of Health Sciences and IIM Rohtak make the city a major education centre. Doctors and nurses from PGIMS Rohtak should confirm their overseas licensing requirements first, while management and arts graduates usually suit the SDM route.
Apostille for Hisar, Kurukshetra and Sonipat
Graduates of Guru Jambheshwar University and CCS Haryana Agricultural University in Hisar, Kurukshetra University and NIT Kurukshetra, and Ashoka University and O.P. Jindal Global University in Sonipat follow the same two routes.

Apostille-friendly Gulf destinations
Many Haryana engineers and technicians take jobs in Saudi Arabia, which joined the convention in December 2022, and in Oman and Bahrain, both long-standing members. An MEA apostille is normally enough there, subject to any extra paperwork the employer lists.
Gulf destinations needing embassy stamps
Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha and Kuwait City fall outside the convention. Degrees for jobs there are attested by the MEA and then legalised by the UAE, Qatari or Kuwaiti embassy, and many sponsors want State HRD authentication beforehand.

FAQs on degree certificate apostille in Haryana
What are the two routes for degree certificate apostille in Haryana?
One route starts in Panchkula, where the Haryana Government authenticates the degree. The other starts in Delhi, with a Notary Public and a Sub-Divisional Magistrate. Both then lead to the MEA, which either apostilles the degree for a convention country or attests it so an embassy can legalise it.
What is the official Haryana Higher Education / HRD portal?
The Department of Higher Education, Haryana, has its official portal at highereduhry.ac.in and operates from Shiksha Sadan, Sector 5, Panchkula. The MEA's list of State authentication authorities for Haryana includes the Higher Education Commissioner and Director Higher Education, desks within that office, the Home Department and the Resident Commissioner of Haryana in New Delhi. Confirm the current process before applying.
Does INFINITYGRO carry out HRD attestation or university verification for Haryana degrees?
No. We provide Notary and SDM attestation, MEA apostille, MEA attestation and embassy legalisation. If your destination needs State HRD authentication, you arrange it with the Haryana authorities, and we handle the MEA and embassy stages afterwards.
I live in Gurugram or Faridabad. Can I visit your office?
Yes. Our office is at C-5 A/2 New Ashok Nagar, Delhi 110096, near New Ashok Nagar station on the Delhi Metro Blue Line. It is open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Bring your original degree and passport copy, and we will review the file during your visit.
My degree is from Panjab University, Chandigarh. Is it covered by the Haryana process?
Chandigarh is a union territory, so degrees issued by Panjab University are pre-authenticated through the Chandigarh Administration rather than the Government of Haryana, even if you live in Haryana. The SDM route is unaffected and works for Panjab University degrees in the usual way.
How do I courier my degree from Ambala, Hisar or Karnal?
WhatsApp us for the checklist first. Place unlaminated originals flat in a rigid envelope with your passport copy and signed authorisation letter, send by tracked courier or Speed Post, and share the tracking number. We return the completed documents by tracked courier or keep them for collection.
Which route suits a nurse from MM University Mullana heading to the UK?
The UK is a Hague Convention member, so an MEA apostille is the relevant legalisation. Nursing regulators and recruitment agencies often have their own document lists, so check whether they specify State HRD authentication. If they do not, the SDM route is usually faster.
Do Gulf countries accept an apostille on a Haryana degree?
Partly. A job in Saudi Arabia, Oman or Bahrain usually needs only the MEA apostille, as all three are convention members, with Saudi Arabia joining in December 2022. A job in the UAE, Qatar or Kuwait needs MEA attestation and then that country's embassy legalisation. Always go by the sponsor's written list.
What does degree certificate apostille in Haryana cost?
A Gurugram professional dropping off one degree for the UK pays differently from a Hisar applicant couriering three documents for a UAE job. Our degree certificate apostille and attestation fees page sets out how pricing works, and a WhatsApp to +91-8595558517 brings a quote for your own file.
Can a family member submit my degree at your office on my behalf?
Yes. A relative or friend can bring your original degree along with your passport copy and a signed authorisation letter from you. We will issue the receipt in your name and keep you updated directly on WhatsApp.
