Export Documents Attestation & Legalisation in India

How it works

Customs authorities and banks in many importing countries need the shipping documents legalised before they release goods or pay under a letter of credit. The exact set depends on the product and the buyer, but the commercial invoice and certificate of origin are almost always included.

Supporting documents such as the packing list, bill of lading or airway bill, insurance certificate and freight certificate are chamber-attested with the main documents. Inspection documents such as phytosanitary, fumigation, halal and health certificates and lab reports are legalised after they are issued by the competent agency.

Exporters of rice, spices, meat, seafood, pharmaceuticals, textiles, chemicals and engineering goods use this service most, often on a recurring basis for regular buyers.
