Attestation

In simple terms, attestation is the process of certifying a document as genuine and authentic. It acts as an official "stamp of approval" from a recognized authority.

When a document is attested, an official body (like a government department, a notary, or an embassy) reviews it and adds their seal or signature. This signature confirms that the document itself, or the signature on it, is legitimate and has legal value.

What Are the Uses of Attestation?

Attestation is almost always required when you need to use a document in a foreign country. The government of the destination country needs proof that your document (which was issued by your home country) is real and not fraudulent.

Common uses include:

• Employment: For securing a work visa or resident permit. Employers abroad need to verify your educational degrees and work experience certificates.

• Education: For applying to foreign universities or colleges. They need to validate your previous transcripts, diplomas, and degrees.

• Residency: For "family visas" or dependent visas. Governments require attestation of birth certificates and marriage certificates to prove relationships.

• Business: For setting up a business overseas, opening a bank account, or signing international contracts. This often involves attesting commercial documents like a Certificate of Incorporation or a Power of Attorney.
