What Is Document Attestation?
Document attestation is the process of verifying the authenticity of a document by authorized departments or authorities.

Attestation usually involves multiple steps:
- Notary Attestation
- Home Department Attestation
- MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) Attestation
- Embassy Attestation
- MOFA (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) Attestation (in the destination country)
These steps vary depending on the type of document and the country in which it is to be used.
