About Attestation

Planning to travel to Nigeria for work, education, business, or dependent visa purposes? You’ll need to get your documents attested by the Nigerian Embassy to make them legally valid for use in Nigeria. Since Nigeria is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, it requires a full document attestation process involving state authorities, the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), and the Nigeria Embassy attestation in Delhi. If you are searching for document attestation services for Nigeria, we provide end-to-end assistance for the complete legalization process. Whether it’s a degree certificate attestation for Nigeria, birth certificate attestation, or marriage certificate attestation, we handle it all with precision and speed. Our certificate attestation services in Delhi cover all required steps including MEA attestation, HRD attestation, and Nigeria Embassy attestation. Our team ensures that your documents are processed smoothly and delivered to you fully attested, saving you time and effort. Whether you’re applying for a job, student visa, or setting up a business, our attestation services near you are designed to make the process hassle-free.

Because Nigeria has not acceded to the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention, all Indian public, academic, and business documents intended for use in Nigeria must undergo complete diplomatic embassy legalization. This multi-tier procedure mandates preliminary verification by local Notaries and State authorities (such as the State Higher Education Department/HRD or State Home Department/GAD), followed by national authentication by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), CPV Division, New Delhi.

Once MEA authentication is completed, documents are officially presented to the Consular Section of the Embassy of Nigeria in New Delhi (or authorized Consulates in Mumbai) for diplomatic certification. For educational credentials, foreign employers and professional councils in Nigeria verify your qualification against state board registries. For family and spouse visas, authenticated birth and marriage certificates establish legal kinship under foreign immigration law.

Upon arrival in Nigeria, documents typically receive a final verification stamp from the local Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) prior to visa issuance or commercial license registration. ReliableAttestation acts as your authorized liaison agency, managing state-level attestations, MEA submissions, and embassy appointments with comprehensive tracking and insured courier dispatch.
