We handle apostille services for clients in Visakhapatnam and across Andhra Pradesh. Documents are collected and returned by courier, and our staff attend the General Administration Department and the other offices in Andhra Pradesh in person, so you do not have to take a day off to queue.
Port and logistics traffic through Visakhapatnam means shipping documents, crew certificates, seafarer records and customs paperwork that must be translated and legalised quickly to avoid demurrage.
Records issued in Andhra Pradesh are authenticated by the General Administration Department before anything can be sent to the Ministry of External Affairs in New Delhi. Educational documents go through the state education or HRD department first, and commercial documents through a chamber of commerce. We confirm which route applies to your document in Visakhapatnam before you post the original.
- State HRD, Home Department or SDM authentication arranged before MEA submission
- Chamber of Commerce attestation for invoices, board resolutions and certificates of origin
- Sticker and stamp photographed and emailed the day the MEA releases the file
- Valid for every Hague Convention country, so no further embassy legalisation is needed

Questions we are asked most
Who handles Apostille services in Visakhapatnam?
Yes. Your file stays with one coordinator from the quote to delivery, and the counter work in Andhra Pradesh is done by our own staff rather than passed to a sub-agent. You always know who to call about it.
What do you need from me to start?
A clear scan or photograph of every page, including the back of the certificate if it carries a stamp, the name of the office or country asking for the document, and the date you need it by. Everything else we arrange.
Will the finished document be accepted abroad?
That depends on the destination. Hague Convention countries accept an MEA apostille; the Gulf, China and several others need embassy legalisation on top; and a few countries only accept a translation sworn before their own courts. We confirm which of these applies to you before we begin, so the file is built for the office that will receive it.
Can you work to a deadline?
Often, yes. Translation and notarisation can be compressed; government processing times cannot always be. Tell us the date at the quote stage and we will say honestly whether it is achievable and what an expedited route would cost.
