Is India a Hague Convention country?

Yes. The Apostille Convention has been in force for India since 14 July 2005, and for the United States since 15 October 1981 — so a U.S. apostille is accepted in India with no embassy step.

The route to India

A IRS Tax Transcript is issued by Internal Revenue Service, a federal authority, so it is authenticated by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. — never by a state office. For India, that apostille is the finish line.

People most often send documents to India for OCI cards, marriage registration, employment. Receiving offices set their own requirements, so confirm what yours asks for — we’ll help you read it.

About the IRS Tax Transcript

How to apostille an IRS tax return transcript for foreign visa, mortgage and income-verification purposes.

You obtain this from Internal Revenue Service. We can’t request it on your behalf, but once you have it, we handle everything through to delivery in India.

A tax-software printout won't work. Foreign lenders want the IRS's own transcript, not a copy of your filed return or an accountant's printout. Transcripts are free from the IRS and often available immediately online.
