HRD attestation for Tamil Nadu certificates
Which HRD attests
The HRD of the state that issued the certificate. For Tamil Nadu universities and boards, such as Anna University, the Tamil Nadu Dr. MGR Medical University, Madras, Annamalai, Madurai Kamaraj, Alagappa, Bharathiar and Vinayaka Missions, the Tamil Nadu HRD attests it before the MEA.
MGR Medical University
For a certificate of the Tamil Nadu Dr. MGR Medical University, we also need all the mark sheets and a copy of your Aadhaar.
Certificates from other states
A certificate from Karnataka or another state goes to the HRD of that state, or through a notary and the SDM. HRD attestation of certificates from Kerala is done through NORKA Roots; Trueway does not handle it.
