A formally administered MEA Apostille chain for Russia, prepared for submission to Russian ministries, employers, universities and migration authorities under the Hague Convention.
The Russian Federation acceded to the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention, which means Indian public documents carrying an MEA apostille sticker are accepted by Russian authorities without further consular legalisation. This applies uniformly to educational records, civil-status certificates and commercial instruments submitted for Russia.
Four sequential stages, executed on your behalf without any office visit required.
The original instrument is examined and endorsed by a Notary Public where the document category requires it.
State Home Department, HRD Directorate or Chamber of Commerce validates the document class before onward submission.
The MEA affixes the official apostille sticker, the single certificate of authenticity recognised throughout Russia.
Apostilled originals are securely couriered back with status confirmation at each stage.
Standard turnaround is 4 to 7 working days from doorstep pickup. The applicable processing fee is determined by document classification, as set out below.
| Document Category | Examples | Fee (INR) |
|---|---|---|
| Educational | Degree, diploma, mark sheets, transcripts | ₹2,000 – ₹2,500 |
| Personal | Birth, marriage, PCC, single-status certificates | ₹2,000 – ₹3,500 |
