The concerned parties need to have a brief knowledge and understanding of the entire process and which government department to contact based on the document(s) that require(s) to be attested. This is why many individuals and organizations look to hire professional document attestation services to meet all requirements and expedite the entire process.

Types of Documents which Require Attestation

The types of documents requiring attestation are divided into 3 categories depending on their nature, shared characteristics, and the relevant government department that needs to be contacted to get them attested. They include:

The document type is used to determine which government department needs to be contacted by the concerned party to get the document in question attested.
