Indian documents for Tajikistan are apostilled by the Ministry of External Affairs after verification where required. Tajik degrees, transcripts and internship certificates for India are apostilled in Tajikistan by the competent ministry. Both countries are Apostille Convention parties, so embassy legalisation is not needed.

Apostille & Attestation from Tajikistan: how it works
Before departure, we arrange apostilles for school, birth and police clearance documents, with state or board verification first.
On return, we advise on apostilling Tajik degrees and the documents the National Medical Commission requires, and help correct errors in university records.
We also apostille Indian marriage and birth certificates for families in Tajikistan.
If your Tajik university issues documents only in Tajik or Russian, the certified English translation should be apostilled or attached to the apostilled original for Indian use.
We also advise on internship certificates, which the National Medical Commission examines closely.
