How the MEA's online verification service speeds up eligible documents from days to hours.
What is e-Sanad?
e-Sanad is the MEA's online channel for document attestation and apostille. Instead of couriering originals between desks, the document's digital copy is verified against the issuing authority's own database.
How the flow works
Apply and pay online on the e-Sanad portal
Your data is shared digitally with the MEA
The concerned DIA/GAD verifies the record
The MEA digitally signs, and the apostilled document is dispatched
The catch: coverage
e-Sanad only works when the issuing university or board has digitised its records and joined the platform. For everything else, the physical HRD + MEA route remains the way — which is where a managed service saves you the branch-office chase.
