What Is Apostille Attestation?

If you want to use your official documents from Pakistan in other countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention, you need something called apostille attestation. It’s a special stamp that shows your documents are real and accepted internationally—making the whole process easier and faster.

Here’s an easy guide to help you understand apostille attestation and how to get it done in Pakistan.

Why Do You Need Apostille Attestation?

Which Countries Accept Apostille Attestation?

Many countries in Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Africa are part of the Hague Apostille Convention. If you’re sending your documents there, an apostille is the easiest way to get them recognized.

How Do You Get Apostille Attestation in Pakistan?

  1. First, check if your document qualifies—usually public documents like birth certificates, education certificates, marriage certificates, and notarized papers.
  2. Get your document attested by local Pakistani authorities such as NADRA, education boards, or courts.
  3. Submit your attested document to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).
  4. MOFA will attach the apostille stamp, which makes your document valid internationally.
