PCC Apostille in Telangana — Delhi-Based MEA Legalization Service
PCC Apostille in Telangana is handled by INFINITYGRO from our Delhi office — you courier your original Police Clearance Certificate to us, we complete the MEA Apostille process in Delhi, and we courier the finished document back to your Telangana address. Passport Seva PCCs are usually apostilled in 2–3 working days; Telangana Police PCCs take about 5–7 working days.
Planning to move abroad for work, higher education, or a family visa? A Police Clearance Certificate issued anywhere in Telangana — or by an Indian Embassy overseas — needs an MEA Apostille before most foreign immigration authorities, employers, or universities will accept it. INFINITYGRO is based in Delhi, and every Apostille sticker for Indian-issued and Indian-Embassy-issued PCCs is applied right here at MEA headquarters. Applicants across Hyderabad, Secunderabad, Warangal, Nizamabad, Karimnagar, and every other Telangana district simply courier their original documents to our Delhi office, and we courier the completed, apostilled certificate back to them once the work is done.

What PCC Apostille in Telangana Actually Means
An Apostille isn't a new certificate — it's an official sticker the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA), Government of India attaches to your existing PCC, confirming that the seal and signature on the document are genuine and were issued by a recognised Indian authority. This is what lets a foreign office accept your document without re-verifying it independently.
Because India is a signatory to the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention, one MEA Apostille is accepted across 120-plus member countries — including Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands, the UK, and Australia — with no separate embassy visit required.
- India-issued PCC: Certificates from any Passport Seva Kendra or state police department in Telangana are eligible for MEA Apostille.
- Indian Embassy-issued PCC: Police Clearance Certificates issued by an Indian Embassy or Consulate abroad — commonly needed by NRIs and their families — are also apostilled from our Delhi office, using the same courier process.

How PCC Apostille in Telangana Works, Step by Step
The exact steps depend on which office issued your Police Clearance Certificate — but every route ends the same way: your document is apostilled in Delhi and couriered back to you in Telangana.
⚡ How the Courier Process Works
Courier PCC to INFINITYGRO, Delhi → MEA Apostille (2–3 working days) → Courier back to Telangana
Route 2 — Telangana Police PCC:
Notary → Telangana Home Dept, Hyderabad → Courier to INFINITYGRO, Delhi → MEA Apostille (5–7 working days) → Courier back
Route 3 — Indian Embassy-Issued PCC (from abroad):
Courier PCC to INFINITYGRO, Delhi → MEA Apostille → Courier back to Telangana
Route 1: PCC Issued via Passport Seva Kendra in Telangana
This is the faster route and the format most widely accepted by foreign missions.
- Get the PCC: Apply through the Passport Seva Portal and complete verification at your nearest Passport Seva Kendra or POPSK in Telangana.
- Courier to Delhi: Send the original certificate to INFINITYGRO's Delhi office; we submit it to MEA and courier it back once the Apostille sticker is attached.
Route 2: PCC Issued by Telangana Police
- Notarisation: A registered Notary Public verifies the document first.
- State Attestation: The Telangana Home Department in Hyderabad adds its authentication.
- Courier to Delhi for MEA Apostille: Only after both prior steps is the document eligible; we complete the Apostille in Delhi and return it by courier.
Route 3: PCC Issued by an Indian Embassy or Consulate Abroad
If your PCC was issued by an Indian Embassy or Consulate overseas — often needed by NRI families relocating on to a third country — it can be couriered to INFINITYGRO's Delhi office directly for MEA Apostille, following the same return-courier process.
Documents to Prepare for PCC Apostille in Telangana
- Original PCC — the physical hard copy, not a printed PDF
- Passport photocopy — front and back pages, clearly legible
- Courier only originals: MEA Apostille is applied directly to your original certificate, so send the physical document, not a photocopy.
- Check the date: Most foreign authorities want the underlying PCC dated within the last 3 to 6 months when you submit your visa file.
- Skip the lamination: The Apostille sticker is applied to the back of the original sheet, so laminated certificates need the plastic layer removed before processing.
- Keep a scan: Photograph or scan every page before your document leaves Telangana for Delhi.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How long does PCC Apostille in Telangana take?
A Police Clearance Certificate issued through Passport Seva Kendra anywhere in Telangana is usually apostilled by MEA in Delhi within 2 to 3 working days of receipt. A PCC issued by Telangana Police takes around 5 to 7 working days because it needs notary and State Home Department attestation in Hyderabad before the MEA Apostille is applied.
Q2. Where is my PCC actually apostilled if I am applying from Telangana?
INFINITYGRO is based in Delhi, and every Apostille sticker is applied there by the Ministry of External Affairs headquarters. Applicants from Hyderabad, Warangal, Nizamabad, or any other Telangana city courier their original PCC to INFINITYGRO's Delhi office, where the MEA process is completed.
Q3. Do I need to travel to Delhi myself to get PCC Apostille in Telangana processed?
No. You only need to courier the original PCC document to INFINITYGRO's Delhi office. Once the MEA Apostille sticker is attached, the completed document is sent back to your address in Telangana by return courier.
Q4. Can a PCC issued by an Indian Embassy abroad be apostilled through this Telangana service?
Yes. Both PCCs issued within India and Police Clearance Certificates issued by an Indian Embassy or Consulate overseas are eligible for MEA Apostille from Delhi. Applicants or their family members in Telangana can courier either type of certificate to INFINITYGRO for processing.
Q5. What documents should I send from Telangana for PCC Apostille?
Send the original Police Clearance Certificate along with a clear photocopy of your passport's front and back pages. Keep a scanned copy for your own records before the originals leave for Delhi.
Q6. How do I verify that my MEA Apostille sticker is genuine?
Every MEA Apostille carries a unique serial number and QR code that can be checked on the official Government of India MEA Apostille or e-Sanad verification portal, regardless of which state the underlying document was issued in.
Q7. Is a laminated PCC from Telangana accepted for Apostille?
No, not while laminated. The Apostille sticker is attached to the reverse of the original paper document, so any plastic lamination has to be carefully removed before the certificate can be submitted.
Q8. Will an MEA Apostille be accepted in the country I'm relocating to?
It will, provided the destination country is a member of the 120-plus nation Hague Apostille Convention, which includes most of the EU, the UK, and Australia. Non-member countries such as the UAE or Qatar require standard embassy attestation instead of an Apostille.
Q9. How old can my Telangana PCC be before it's no longer accepted for visa use?
Most foreign missions and universities expect the underlying PCC to be dated within the last 3 to 6 months at the time you submit your visa or admission file, so it's best to start the Apostille process soon after the certificate is issued.
Q10. Does INFINITYGRO handle documents other than PCC for Telangana applicants?
Yes. The same Delhi-based courier process is used for Apostille and embassy attestation of degree certificates, marriage certificates, birth certificates, and commercial documents, so multiple papers for one visa file can be processed together.
