Your birth certificate is accepted as a legal proof in India. However, for it to be accepted overseas, it needs to be certified or attested. This is exactly what Apostille does. Apostille of a birth certificate is its legalization by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) to prove its authenticity in a foreign country. The MEA is the only exclusive government body that has the authority to provide an Apostille. Apostille is nothing but a unique sticker issued by the MEA that carries a unique number. Using this unique tracking number, the foreign nation can verify the legitimacy of your birth certificate. The Apostille attestation stamp is affixed behind the original birth certificate.
Birth Certificate Apostille is accepted by the foreign nations that are a part of the Hague Convention. Nearly 117 countries are a part of the Hague Convention. If the destination country that you are planning to shift to is a Hague Convention country, birth certificate Apostille is a must. Most international countries are members of the Hague Convention.
