MEA Apostille · QR Verified
A legally notarized and government-attested declaration that confirms you are currently unmarried — officially recognised by foreign governments, embassies, and civil registration authorities worldwide.
When an Indian citizen wishes to marry a foreign national or register a marriage abroad, foreign authorities require official proof that the person is legally free to marry. This proof takes the form of a Single Status Affidavit — a sworn declaration that is then notarized, attested by the SDM, and finally apostilled by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) of India.
Without this document, your marriage registration, spouse visa, or immigration application can be delayed, rejected, or declared incomplete by the concerned foreign embassy or authority.

"I needed my Single Status Affidavit apostilled for my marriage registration in Germany. Jaya International prepared the exact format required by the German authorities, handled everything, and even explained which clauses to include. Document was accepted without any issue. Highly recommended!"
"I was living in Dubai and needed a CNI / Single Status Certificate apostilled from India urgently for my marriage registration. Jaya International handled everything remotely — I sent my passport copy on WhatsApp, they prepared the draft, and I received the apostilled document via DHL within days. Excellent service!"
"Was very confused about the difference between apostille, attestation and certificate of no impediment. The team at Jaya International explained everything clearly on WhatsApp, told me exactly what I needed for my UK spouse visa, and completed the process professionally. No hassle, no delays."
They are essentially the same document with different names used by different countries. A Single Status Affidavit is the Indian version — a sworn declaration of unmarried status. When this document is apostilled and presented abroad, it serves as the Certificate of No Impediment (CNI). Countries like the UK, Germany, and France recognise the apostilled Indian Single Status Affidavit as their equivalent CNI. We prepare the format to match each country's specific expectations.
Yes, absolutely. We regularly assist NRIs living in the UAE, Germany, UK, Australia, Canada, and many other countries. You simply send us your passport copy on WhatsApp, we prepare the affidavit draft, share it for your verification, and once you confirm, you can either print-sign-courier to us, or arrange for someone in India to visit our office. The completed apostilled document is then shipped to you via DHL internationally.
The processing time depends on the destination country. For standard Apostille (Notary → SDM → MEA), the process typically takes 5 to 10 working days after we receive the signed document. For UAE / Middle East with Embassy Attestation + MOFA, the timeline is approximately 15 to 25 working days. We will give you an accurate timeline on WhatsApp based on your specific requirements and current processing speeds.
The standard requirement is: (1) Passport copy — first and last page, or all pages depending on country; (2) One recent passport-size photograph; (3) Aadhar card copy for address verification; (4) Your destination country and purpose details. For some country-specific formats, additional information like father's/mother's names, residential history, or specific declarations may be needed. We will provide a complete personalised checklist on WhatsApp based on your case.
MEA Apostille is accepted in all 124 countries that are signatories to the Hague Apostille Convention (1961), including Germany, UK, France, Australia, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Belgium, and many more. For countries not part of the Hague Convention — such as UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain — the document requires additional Embassy Attestation followed by MOFA attestation. We handle both types.
Before signing, we always share the draft with you for verification. However, if an error is found after signing, the affidavit needs to be redone — it cannot be corrected or overwritten after signing. This is why we strongly recommend our Option B (we prepare the draft) to minimise such risks. If you choose to self-fill, please ensure all details exactly match your passport before signing.
Some countries like Germany, France, Italy, and others require a certified translation of the apostilled document into their language. We can arrange certified translations through our partner agencies. If your destination country requires translation, inform us at the time of enquiry and we will include it in the service.
The fee varies depending on the destination country and the attestation chain required. We prefer to provide a precise quote after understanding your specific requirements to avoid any surprises. Please WhatsApp us with your country and purpose — we will immediately share the current fee structure with full transparency.
