2. Services Provided

S K Document Centre offers a wide range of services to help you navigate the complexities of legal document processing, attestation, and legalization:

Notary Attestation: Notary attestation is the process of verifying the authenticity of documents by a licensed notary public. It involves the notary witnessing the signing of documents and certifying their legitimacy with an official seal or stamp. This attestation is often the first step in legalizing documents for use in official, legal, or international matters.
SDM Attestation: SDM (Sub-Divisional Magistrate) attestation is the process of verifying personal, educational, or commercial documents by the SDM office. It is an alternative to State Home Department attestation and is often quicker. SDM attestation is commonly required for documents intended for use abroad, especially for visa, immigration, or higher education purposes.
HRD Attestation: HRD Attestation is the process of verifying educational documents by the Human Resource Development (HRD) department or the Education Ministry of the issuing state. This attestation certifies that the academic documents are genuine and recognized by the government, often required for overseas education, employment, or immigration purposes.
Home Department Attestation: Home Department Attestation is the official verification of documents by the Home Department of a state government. This attestation certifies the authenticity of personal, educational, or legal documents and is often required for various legal, immigration, and employment processes both within India and abroad.
MEA Attestation: MEA Attestation is the process where the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) authenticates documents issued in India for use in foreign countries. This certification verifies the genuineness of the documents, making them legally valid and acceptable abroad for purposes such as education, employment, or immigration.
MEA Apostille: MEA Apostille is a special certification provided by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) for documents intended to be used in countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention. This process authenticates the document, simplifying its acceptance internationally by eliminating the need for further legalization by embassies or consulates.
Embassy Legalization: Embassy legalization is the process of authenticating documents by the embassy or consulate of the destination country. It is required for countries that are not part of the Hague Apostille Convention. This step ensures that the document is legally recognized and accepted for use abroad, often for purposes like employment, education, or residency.
MOFA Attestation: MOFA (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) attestation is the final step in the document legalization process for use in a foreign country. It confirms that a document has been verified by relevant authorities in the home country. MOFA attestation is typically required for work visas, residency permits, or educational purposes abroad, ensuring the document’s authenticity at the international level.
Legal Documentation: Legal documentation refers to the preparation, review, and management of official papers that are required to establish, prove, or regulate legal rights and obligations. These documents may include contracts, affidavits, agreements, powers of attorney, notarizations, and certificates, and are often used for government, business, or personal legal purposes. Proper legal documentation ensures compliance with laws and provides protection in legal matters.
Visa Stamping: Visa stamping is the process of endorsing a visa on a passport, granting the holder official permission to enter, stay, or work in a specific country for a defined period. This stamp is usually placed by the embassy or consulate of the destination country after the visa application is approved. It is a crucial step for international travel and immigration.
E-Stamp Paper: E-Stamp Paper is a digital version of traditional stamp paper used for paying government stamp duty on legal documents. It is a secure and tamper-proof method of documentation, generated electronically through authorized platforms. E-stamp paper is commonly used for agreements, affidavits, contracts, and other legal purposes, ensuring authenticity and legal validity.
Translation Services: Translation services involve converting written or spoken content from one language to another while preserving its original meaning and context. These services are essential for legal, business, educational, and personal documents to ensure clear and accurate communication across different languages. Professional translation helps maintain accuracy, cultural relevance, and legal compliance.
De-lamination Services: De-lamination services involve the careful removal of laminated plastic covering from documents without damaging the original paper. This process is often required when original documents need to be attested, verified, or scanned, especially for legal or official purposes where laminated documents are not accepted.

All services are performed in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, ensuring the authenticity and legality of the documents in the international or local context.
