farouk1989:

And if I do that, is that acceptable for authentication for travel purposes?

Yes that's the one that will be accepted

farouk1989:

Please can someone use "Declaration of age" from Court in place of birth certificate Incase of birth certificate is not available?

Use that your affidavit of age declaration of birth to get attestation of birth from NPC.

[quote author=Ododomama post=126037361]Hello everyone, a friend helped me with authentication of my documents at Abuja, MOFA was successful but those guys at MOE were adamant in exploiting him, they demanded for 20k claiming he is an agent or he should bring the owners original passport, his own passport, consent letter, WAEC scratch card and several other conditions before it can be done.

They said if he pay 20k he will get it in 10min, that raises concern on the genuity of their authentication, I don't want 'Oluwole stamp'

There's nothing like that, hope your friend is telling you the truth ? But the requirements is that you must share same surname with who ever that's is representing you.
Let him reachout to me anytime he is coming there i will guide him on how to go about it.

Humairaa:
Good Morning
Please do I need my international passport for any authentication at ministry of education or ministry of foreign affairs.
I want to authenticate my WAEC certificate and Secondary school transcript but my passport isn't available yet. Is it possible for me to do the authentication.

You dont need your international passport for that

Slippy:


This whole process...can I have someone in Abuja do it for me...or it has to be me?

Yes ofcuse, if you want our services we can assist you do it.

KendrickAyomide:
bro what are the examples of such organizations? Can it be send to a private owned firm or establishment?

Any institution or organization, including private own instructions

Ododomama:

Just the information I needed, can d whole process of authentication be concluded in a day?

No, the process will be within 2-5 days, if you're collecting eligibility and English Proficiency letter, because nowadays if you submit for letter, it will take 2-3 days for the letter to be out at MOE.

kasselerm:

Adeleyeibrahim:

Please I have a couple of questions on authentication and legalization ma'am
* The authentication at MOFA and MOE, will the authentication seal or stamp be on d original credentials or photocopy?
* While applying to VFS global, will the attached scanned documents be the authenticated copy i.e the original or photocopy depending on the one they stamped on.

I'm asking this question because where I stay is quite a journey to Abuja, I was thinking of applying to VFS global first, then go for both authentication and legalization in just one trip.

As regards to Authentication at MOE&MOFA, the standard practice there, you will submit all the original documents you want to authenticate with the photopies, educational stick will be put on the back of your original documents only and they will sign on each of your photopies with pen, then you proceed to foreign Affairs, there your originals and photopies will be signed. The reason been that when you go to embassy for legalization, some embassy/individuals may request/prefer the legalization on the original certificate, why other embassy/individuals will want it to be on the photopies, but on those sign with pen from MOE. ONLY educational documents are taken to MOE, why other goes to foreign affairs ie marriage certificate, birth certificate
I think in your own case, affter authentication will scan the original certificate front and back, showing the educational sticker at the back of the documents and send to them.

Waposh:

You applied for a bsc or MSc ?
What documents did you submit ?

Might be useful

[quote author=noblesail post=125786325]Hello guys ,please I have few questions for the study in Austria process. I'm currently at the document gathering stage.
1) I understand that legalisation are in 3 stages, min. of edu, min. of foreign affairs and finally, emabassy and the documents needed for each stage may differ. Please what documents are needed at each stage.
2) For the legalisation process, is it done on original copies or photcopy.
3) For police character certificate, do I need to get in any police station or a police station within the area where I live.
4) Do I need a letter specifying that I studied in english and does it need to be legalized too?

All inputs are welcomed. Thanks in advance guys 🙏

1 you original educational documents are needed for authentication at mod and mofa including the photopies, your birth certificate or attestation of birth etc are also among
2 done on the original but you will also do with the photopies
3 you can wait till when you want to apply for your Residency before you can apply for it, because it expires in 3 months time
4 yes, thats if the your sch requires it, but most sch in Austria requires it and you do not need to legalize it

Chomyg:


Please how did you apply for Transcript from Uniport?

The best approach we use is by using the address of the ministry of education to request for your original transcript, no school can reject that
So if you are interested i can send you the address of ministry of education, they send your transcript to them in their office in Abuja,then you can come and pick it, thats mostly if you want to authenticate your document in ministry of education and foreign in Abuja here, but if you dont want to authenticate someone can also help you to pick it from them and send to you, it's better and faster and i can assist you as well if needed.

Raregem9000:
Good evening bosses here, please can statement of result be used for authentication at the ministry of education?

Yes if it is not more than 5 years that it was issued, because it is assumed that before 5 years the original certicate would have been out

AlphaNugget:

You are spewing trash.
You want the person to pay you 80-150k for a date you and your coends registered for with your own fuc*king details
You guys will soon cast Austria with your useless manipulative greedy mentality, always looking for way to exploit innocent civilians.

Bro honestly speaking i don't know what you are talking about, and i dont have issues with u, what im saying is that we are here to provide genuine information.
Even in some embassy someone people may go for express appointment date, why others may not, all these things are genuine and possible that's what I'm saying, any information give out here are subject to further research. Im privy, to have to have such information that's why i say it is possible, that's all. I guess you dont really know much about how all this travel stuff works.

AlphaNugget:

9rad kindly dust your shoes and run!!!

Getting closer dates is 100% possible, even if you want it in 2 weeks time you can, and some may want a closer date for different reason, depending on the situation of their own case, which are most time valid.
So if you wish to go for a closer date and have your valid reason for doing so, it's possible.
You cant be far and know the day to day activities at the embassy, it is someone closer to the embassy that is in position to do that.
So dont discourage anybody, anyone interested can as well come the embassy in Abuja to find out.

9rad:
Please is there a way to get early date for verification/legalization, i am only seeing dates in 2024

Its possible chat me up

Waposh:

Can’t we request for extension letter from school ?

If you have paid school fees, the best option is to defer to January, so as to afford you enough time to get visa appointment, even if you're promise appointment by October, there's no guarantee that you will get it by that October, i know what I'm saying.
Deferring buys you enough time to get everything sorted out.

ADEXIS:
Hello I couldn't get a date for appointment. What do I do next or when next do I try?

The portal for appointment is opened ooh

https://appointment.bmeia.gv.at/HomeWeb/Scheduler

ADEXIS:
Hello, should all proposed documents for legalization be original? Including degree certificate if needed?

Yes you have to authenticate bothe the original and photopies at MOE&MOFA, but will summit photopies

ADEXIS:
Hello I couldn't get a date for appointment. What do I do next or when next do I try?

Try it mostly in the night arou d 2 or 3 am

OneisOne:


No one can help schedule for a closer date, the embassy is that strict

It is very posible, thought a bit strict jst like he said, and what your date if i may ask ?

TrillionBrains:
Please the original transcript copy you talked about here, is it possible one can one get it from the school without having them send it themselves?

Yes you can use insider to get it from your sch
But the best option is for your school to send directly to ministry of Education, that one is faster, i can give you there address, the school will now send the official hardcopy to them, many schools dont give official transcript to individuals, they send directly to organisation, this the best option many are using because the challenges they encounte in the process of get there's from there sch. Once it is comfirmed they have sent to Education, i can help you pick it, or you can pick it when you want to authenticate your documents, if you want to do it yourself .

hunee:


Good one.
Pls are you based in Abuja? Or do you have office around the embassy in maitama?
Kindly, paste here your digits

You can pm

James20223:
Hello wanted to ask my process with the ministry of education certificate is wasting time and it’s getting to 1 month and my school said they will also issue a document themselves and will also take 1 month before visa and classes start October 2nd
Will it be possible incase I’m not able to meet up on the 2nd can I prolly go in November or when I receive visa
Thanks

We didn't understand your question
Do you mean you want to know the process of authentication of documents in MFA&MOFA
If so, the process is seamless now, but what documents do you want to authenticate, it depends on that
It can be done within a week.

hunee:
can someone here please update us on work permit interviews and if people have been getting the visas. We dont have a very strong feedback on that.

Any update on work permit holders? Anyone recently granted?

Yes they are granting visa for work permit holders, if well package with the right documents you will definitely be granted visa ,even if you are denied in the first instance you can rearrange and appeal before the expiration of your permit which have up to 2 years before its expiration, hopefully before it's expiration you would have gotten your visa.
They granted some 3 years work permit visa, 3 weeks ago he has started work already over there.
Be optimistic, do your research well, and apply with the required documents you will definitely excel.

Rumuodara:
Please who has whatsgroup link. I need to know the process

What process do you want to know ?

SolChem:

Yes, all related documents must be attested/verified at FME (school certs and transcripts) and then MFA (all documents, including police character certificate).

1. Yes your original educational documents with be authenticated at MOE&MOFA
2. Your transcript must be original copy not student copy
3. Your police character certificate will inly be sign at MFA only
4. Police character certificate price has gone up now unlike before when we do it at 30k, since they face off the manual type, the last one i did last week was 55k, you can do it at any police command of your choice.
Lastly as for authentication you can check our signature if you need our assistance.

Hassancisse:
Anyone has any idea on how to get early Schengen appointment date for Poland study visa

Is it for work or study ?
If for work you dont have much issues getting early visa appointment, that's if you have not register online for the draws, and also work permit has a longer duration before it expires.
Likewise for study, but also depends on your resumption date.
And it is difficult getting early date if you are already in a draw. Except the person wants to use express appointment.
There are all posible and better when you come in person to the Embassy, here in Abuja to get more information before commencing the process.

Babe808:
Hello guys good evening. Please I schooled in republic of benin, does anyone have any idea how I can go about the legalization of document?

You will have to legalize it in republic of Benin, there's a stick stamp they will put on the documents, just as it is done in ministry of Education here in Abuja, after that you will bring to Benin embassy here in Abuja for there signing and that of foreign affairs

Note if the documents is in Nigeria you will have to send it back to Benin for there ministry of education sticker stamp, before their embassy and foreign affairs signing in Abuja.
