Certification attestation

**Certificate attestation** is the process of verifying the authenticity of a document before it is accepted by a foreign country or institution. It typically involves multiple stages, including attestation by local authorities, ministries (e.g., Ministry of External Affairs), and the embassy or consulate of the destination country. This procedure is necessary for documents such as educational certificates, birth or marriage certificates, and legal documents when they are used abroad for purposes like employment, study, or immigration.
