Overview

Why Bangladesh asks for a legalised health certificate

An export health certificate confirms that a consignment of food or animal products was inspected and is fit for human consumption. It is common for meat, seafood, dairy, eggs, honey and processed food. Health certificates for food and animal products are issued by the competent Indian authority for the product, such as export inspection or animal quarantine authorities.

Food and agricultural imports in Asia are subject to health checks, and buyers may ask for legalised certificates to support import permits.

Companies dealing with Bangladesh are most often asked for a legalised health certificate during food import clearance, as well as for veterinary or food safety approval and retail and distributor registration.

A health certificate issued in India is notarised, attested by an Indian Chamber of Commerce and then apostilled by the MEA. Bangladesh accepts the apostille, so no embassy step is needed.

Bangladesh joined the Apostille Convention in March 2025; we confirm acceptance for your document case by case.

How to get a health certificate apostilled for Bangladesh

  1. Send us a scan first

    WhatsApp a scan of the health certificate and tell us who in Bangladesh will receive it. We check it and reply with the steps, timeline and price.

  2. Notary in India

    The signatory's signature or the certified copy is notarised in India, as the chamber and MEA require for this document.

  3. Indian Chamber of Commerce

    An Indian Chamber of Commerce verifies the issuing authority's signature and your company's details, then stamps the health certificate.

  4. MEA apostille

    The MEA adds its apostille, which is the final step for a Hague Convention country.

  5. Tracked return

    We courier the legalised document back by Blue Dart or another tracked courier, or you collect it from our Delhi office.

What to send us

  • Original health certificate for the consignment
  • Matching commercial invoice and certificate of origin
  • Halal or phytosanitary certificate, if the buyer needs them too
  • Certified Bengali translation, if the authority in Bangladesh asks (we arrange it)
  • Request letter on company letterhead

Avoid rejection

  • Send the certificate as soon as it is issued; food shipments cannot wait.
  • Consignment details must match the invoice exactly.
  • Do not get the document stamped by an embassy; an apostille country only needs the MEA apostille.
  • Check whether the buyer also needs a halal certificate legalised.
