Document Legalisation Process

To legalise an Indian document for use in Tanzania:

Have the document notarised by an Indian notary public.

MEA Authentication

Get the document authenticated by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) or the relevant Sub-Divisional Magistrate.

Embassy Legalisation

Bring the authenticated document to the Tanzania High Commission for final legalisation.

Tanzania has not joined the Hague Apostille Convention, so full legalisation through the High Commission is required.
