Degree Certificate Apostille Services Manipur: Manipur University, DMU and RIMS Degrees Finished in Delhi
Degree certificate apostille services Manipur residents need are completed at Delhi counters, and INFINITYGRO handles the Notary, SDM, Ministry of External Affairs and embassy stages while the original travels by tracked courier.
Manipur is a small State with a dense academic map: a central university, a State university created out of the old government colleges, a technical university, an agricultural university and two medical institutions, all within reach of Imphal.
- One process for Manipur University, Dhanamanjuri, MTU, CAU and RIMS degrees
- Courier from Imphal to Delhi, with timing planned around the road and air links
- Built for the nursing, hospitality and overseas study files that leave the State
- Every stage of Degree Certificate Apostille Services Manipur tracked and confirmed on WhatsApp
What do degree certificate apostille services manipur involve?
Degree certificate apostille services Manipur applicants use end with the Ministry of External Affairs applying a numbered sticker to the reverse of the original degree, which makes it valid in every Hague Apostille Convention country without any embassy stamp.
The Ministry certifies a signature that is already on the paper. That signature comes either from the Manipur authorities, or from a Notary Public confirmed by a Sub-Divisional Magistrate in Delhi. The UAE, Qatar and Kuwait are outside the convention and need MEA attestation and then embassy legalisation.
Distance is the real constraint here, not procedure. Build a fortnight of slack into any deadline and degree certificate apostille services manipur become straightforward.
The universities behind Manipur degrees
Six institutions sign the degrees held in the State, and the newest of them changed where a lot of Imphal graduates must now go.
Manipur University, Canchipur
A central university since 2005, it affiliates most of the degree colleges of the valley and the hills and awards the bulk of the State's general degrees.
RIMS and JNIMS have both taught under it, so many medical degrees carry the Manipur University name.
Dhanamanjuri University, Imphal
Created out of the cluster of older government colleges in Imphal, DM University now awards its own degrees to students of DM College of Arts, Science and Commerce.
Check the year on your certificate: older ones carry the Manipur University name instead.
Manipur Technical University
MTU awards the engineering degrees of the State's affiliated technical colleges, while NIT Manipur at Langol awards its own.
Central Agricultural University, Imphal
CAU serves the whole of the north east from its Imphal headquarters, awarding agriculture, horticulture, fisheries and veterinary degrees across several States.
Its graduates move to Australia, Canada and South East Asia on skilled migration.
RIMS, JNIMS and the health sciences
The Regional Institute of Medical Sciences and Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences train the State's doctors and nurses.
See MBBS apostille and B.Sc Nursing apostille.
Private universities and distance degrees
Manipur International University, Sangai International University and the private institutes award their own degrees, and distance study through open universities is common.
Overseas evaluators question both more closely, so tell us at the outset which you hold.
What we handle and what stays with you
Being a long way from Delhi makes clarity matter: once documents leave Imphal you want to know exactly who holds them and what stage they are at.
INFINITYGRO carries out every Delhi stage. We do not apply for university verification and we do not lodge files with the Manipur higher education department.
The two columns below divide degree certificate apostille services manipur between our desk and yours, so nothing is assumed.
Handled by INFINITYGRO
- Notary Public seal and signature on the original degree
- Attestation by a Sub-Divisional Magistrate here in Delhi
- The MEA apostille, where the destination has joined the convention
- MEA attestation followed by UAE, Qatar or Kuwait embassy legalisation
- Taking over mid-file if your degree is already State-authenticated
- Tracked courier both ways, with a scan sent before anything returns
Arranged by you, if asked for
- Verification of the degree by the awarding university
- State authentication from the Manipur authorities at Imphal, where the sponsor or council demands it
Once that stamp is on the degree, courier it to us and we resume from the MEA stage.
Two routes for degree certificate apostille services manipur
Both routes finish at an MEA apostille or an MEA attestation. The difference is who vouches for the degree before the Ministry sees it.
Gulf sponsors usually name what they want, so ask for it in writing before paying anybody.
State authentication route for Degree Certificate Apostille Services Manipur
For Gulf sponsors and health councils that want the State's authentication first.
- Arranged by you
Authentication by the Manipur higher education authorities
Manipur runs higher education through its Directorate of University and Higher Education at Imphal, which handles the State's colleges and the departmental side of verification.

MEA apostille for Hague Convention countries
Courier the authenticated degree to our Delhi office. We submit it to the Ministry of External Affairs through the authorised channel and collect the apostilled original.
- Handled by INFINITYGRO
Embassy legalisation for non-member countries
Countries outside the convention, chiefly the UAE, Qatar and Kuwait, need MEA attestation first and then a stamp from their own embassy in New Delhi, both of which we arrange. Read our guide to degree certificate attestation for the UAE before you start.
Choose this for: Gulf employment, nursing registration, and sponsors naming State authentication.
SDM route for Degree Certificate Apostille Services Manipur, handled end to end by us
No office visit in Imphal, and one accountable team throughout.
- Handled by INFINITYGRO
Notary Public authorisation
We present your degree to a registered Notary Public in Delhi, who records the entry and applies seal and signature.
- Handled by INFINITYGRO
SDM attestation in Delhi
The Sub-Divisional Magistrate confirms the notary is genuine and signs the degree, which is the clearance the Ministry looks for. Our step-by-step guide to attestation in Delhi NCR walks through this stage.
- Handled by INFINITYGRO
MEA apostille or embassy legalisation
For a convention country the Ministry applies the sticker and the degree is finished. For the UAE, Qatar or Kuwait it attests the degree instead, and we carry it on to the embassy.
Choose this for: Study abroad, skilled migration, dependant visas and residence files.
Manipur authorities, and planning around the distance
Work from official sources only, and start early. Courier times from Imphal stretch when road or air links are disrupted, and a file that takes days from a metro can take two weeks from a hill district.
- Check whether the certificate names Manipur University, DM University or another body.
- Allow extra weeks in your own planning for courier time in both directions.
- Keep the degree, mark sheets, a passport copy and the offer letter in one packet.
- Send the authenticated degree to us for the Ministry and embassy stages.
Designations and counters change over time. Confirm the present procedure before you hand over originals. Our reference list of Department of Higher Education authentication addresses and our step-by-step HRD attestation guide are updated separately.
Courier from Imphal, with time allowed for the journey
Everything from Manipur travels by courier. The procedure is no different from anywhere else; only the transit time is, so build that into your deadline.
Option 1: visit our Delhi office
Students and families already in Delhi, and there are many during term time, are welcome to bring documents to the office. New Ashok Nagar sits on the Blue Line metro, an easy ride from anywhere in the city.
- We go through the file with you and fix the route on the spot
- Every original listed on a receipt you take away
- A quick call before you set out saves waiting
Office address:
C – 5 A/2 New Ashok Nagar, Delhi – 110096, IndiaWorking hours: Monday to Saturday, 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM (Sunday closed)
Option 2: courier from Imphal, Thoubal, Churachandpur or Ukhrul
Speed Post and the private couriers run from Imphal to Delhi, with the hill districts routed through the capital. Allow extra days from Ukhrul, Tamenglong, Chandel and Senapati.
- Confirm the checklist with us on WhatsApp before sealing the packet
- Pack the original flat, unlaminated, with a card backing
- Put in a passport photocopy and the authorisation letter you have signed
- Never part with an original without a receipt naming it
- Send the tracking number across as soon as it is booked
Collect in person or receive by return courier
You get a scan on WhatsApp as soon as the Ministry returns the degree, which is your chance to check the name, the dates and the stamp. After that the originals travel home to Manipur by tracked courier. Every step of degree certificate apostille services manipur is reported to you as it happens.
Comparing the two Degree Certificate Apostille Services Manipur routes
Use this to place your own degree certificate apostille services manipur file. Where an agent and the employer disagree, go by the employer's written list.
| Factor | Process 1: State route | Process 2: SDM route |
|---|---|---|
| Pre-authentication by | Designated Government of Manipur authority, at Imphal | Notary Public and SDM, Delhi |
| Arranged by | The degree holder | INFINITYGRO |
| MEA stage | INFINITYGRO | INFINITYGRO |
| Embassy legalisation | INFINITYGRO, if needed | INFINITYGRO, if needed |
| Time taken | Longer, because of State and university processing | Shorter, with fewer offices involved |
| Your involvement | Applying at Imphal | Office visit or courier only |
| Best for | Gulf sponsors and health councils | Study, skilled migration and residence files |
The valley, the hills and where people go
Degree certificate apostille services manipur work identically across the State. What differs is the transit time and the kind of qualification people hold.
Imphal and the valley districts
Manipur University, DM University, RIMS, JNIMS and NIT Manipur are all within reach of the capital.
See our Imphal page for city-level notes.
Nurses and paramedical staff
Manipur trains a large number of nurses relative to its size, and they register in the Gulf, the United Kingdom and Ireland.
Gulf hospitals need MEA attestation plus an embassy stamp; the UK and Ireland accept the apostille. Councils want transcripts either way.
Students going to Europe and East Asia
Manipuri students head for Germany, South Korea, Japan and Australia for postgraduate study in rising numbers.
All of those are convention members, so an apostille finishes the file.
Hospitality and aviation staff
Hotel management and cabin crew qualifications are a common file from the State, and the Gulf carriers recruit here.
Those employers want MEA attestation and an embassy stamp rather than an apostille.
The hill districts
Churachandpur, Ukhrul, Senapati, Tamenglong and Chandel are served by the same universities, and their files follow exactly this process.
Transit takes longer from the hills, so send documents earlier than you think you need to.
Everywhere in Manipur
We accept documents by courier from every district and return them the same way. The other certificates follow the same path: PCC apostille in Manipur, birth certificate apostille and marriage certificate apostille.
For city-level notes see our Imphal page.
Countries that accept Degree Certificate Apostille Services Manipur
Where degree certificate apostille services manipur are headed decides the route. Nurses and hospitality staff go to the Gulf and the UK; students to Germany, South Korea, Japan and Australia.
Apostille is enough
Most study and migration destinations are members, so the apostille finishes the file: Canada, the USA, the UK, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, the Netherlands and Singapore. Oman and Bahrain are members too, and Saudi Arabia joined in December 2022.
Embassy legalisation is also needed
If the posting is in the UAE, Qatar or Kuwait, an apostille is not what they want. Those files need MEA attestation followed by a stamp from that country's embassy in New Delhi, both of which we handle. See Qatar embassy attestation and Kuwait embassy attestation.
Membership of the convention changes from time to time. Check the official HCCH status table or ask us before you commit to a route.

FAQs on degree certificate apostille services manipur
Short answers to the questions we are asked most often about degree certificate apostille services manipur.
My degree says Manipur University but my college is now under DM University.
That is normal and nothing is wrong. Dhanamanjuri University was created out of the older government colleges of Imphal, so students who graduated before the change hold Manipur University degrees and those after hold DM University ones. Verification always follows the name printed on the certificate.
How much extra time should I allow from Imphal?
Plan on four to seven days each way for the courier in normal conditions, and more when road or air links are disrupted. The Delhi processing time is the same as for anyone else; it is the transit that varies. Tell us your deadline at the start and we will be straight with you about whether it is reachable.
I am a nurse going to the Gulf. What will they want?
For the UAE, Qatar or Kuwait the file needs MEA attestation followed by legalisation at that country's embassy in New Delhi, not an apostille, and most Gulf hospitals also ask for State authentication first. Send the degree, the transcripts and the council registration. Saudi Arabia joined the convention in December 2022, so an apostille suffices there.
I am applying to a university in South Korea or Japan. Is an apostille enough?
Yes, both are Hague Convention members, so the MEA apostille is accepted without any embassy stamp afterwards. Universities there usually also want the transcripts apostilled, so send them in the same batch rather than paying twice for courier.
Is there an apostille counter in Imphal?
No. The Ministry decentralised apostille processing to sixteen cities from January 2019 and Guwahati is the nearest of them to Manipur. Even there, no member of the public has submitted documents over the counter anywhere in India since 2012; files go through authorised agencies, and ours are lodged in Delhi.
An agent has taken my original certificates. Is that normal?
Handing originals to anyone without a written receipt is a bad idea, whoever they are. Proper document work always produces a receipt listing each original by name. We issue one for every file, whether you visit the office or courier documents, and we send a scan before returning anything.
Does INFINITYGRO do HRD attestation or university verification?
No, neither. Our work is the Notary and SDM stage, the MEA apostille, MEA attestation and embassy legalisation. If the destination insists on a State stamp or on verification by your own university, that part is yours to arrange, and we pick the file up from the Ministry onwards.
Start your Manipur file early
Imphal, Thoubal, Bishnupur, Churachandpur or Ukhrul: tell us the university, the destination and the deadline, and we will say honestly whether the date can be met.
