Apostille and Attestation are both document legalization processes used for international use, but they are not the same. Apostille is required for Hague Convention countries and follows a simplified verification process, while Attestation is required for non-Hague countries and involves multiple steps including State, MEA, and Embassy legalization. Understanding the difference helps in choosing the correct document verification process for study, work, or migration abroad.
