A company in India requested my Dutch documents
If a company in India asks for Dutch documents, the request may involve employment, onboarding, due diligence, banking, compliance, contract signing or business registration. I review the request and explain the most practical Dutch document route from the Netherlands.
A company request is often less clear than an embassy checklist.
Indian companies may ask for “legalized documents”, “attested copies”, “certified documents” or “original Dutch documents” without explaining exactly which Dutch route is required.
Before arranging anything, it is important to understand what the company is actually trying to verify and whether the document will be reviewed by the company itself, a bank, lawyer, university, government office or another institution in India.
I check what the company is really asking for before you prepare the wrong documents.
Apostille Assist helps translate the company’s request into a practical Dutch route, especially if you are outside the Netherlands or need the document package prepared from here.
Common clues
The main value is getting the Dutch side handled correctly before the company deadline.
If the route is possible, Apostille Assist may be able to help coordinate obtaining the required Dutch document, checking the company’s wording, arranging apostille or translation where needed, and organising international delivery to India.
This is especially useful if the company gave you a short deadline, if the request is vague, or if you are not in the Netherlands yourself.
External costs such as government fees, apostille fees, translation costs, courier services or international shipping are always discussed before practical work starts.
Dutch documents an Indian company may request
The exact route depends on the company, the purpose and whether another authority in India is involved.
Diploma or transcript
Often requested for employment, professional verification, study-related work or qualification checks.
Police certificate
May be needed for background checks, onboarding, regulated work or compliance.
Birth certificate
Can be requested for identity verification, HR files or official registration steps.
Marriage certificate
May be requested for family status, relocation, benefits or HR-related documentation.
Company document
KvK or corporate documents may be needed for business partnerships, banking or compliance.
Power of attorney
Can be required if someone in India needs authority to sign or act on your behalf.
How I review an Indian company document request

I look at whether apostille, translation, certified copy, notarial handling or shipping is relevant.
Coordinate next step
If practical help is possible, I explain what Apostille Assist can arrange next.

What Dutch documents can a company in India request?
Common examples include diplomas, transcripts, police certificates, birth certificates, marriage certificates, KvK documents, powers of attorney and notarial documents.

Sometimes, but not always. It depends on the company’s instruction and whether another authority, bank, lawyer or government office will use the document.
Does the document need translation?
It may need translation if the company requests it or if the document is not in a language accepted by the receiving party.
Can Apostille Assist obtain the Dutch documents?
In some cases, practical coordination may be possible, depending on the document type, authority, authorisation and route required.
Can you ship the documents to India?
Where practical handling is possible, international delivery can often be included in the proposed route.

Yes. I first clarify the likely route. If practical handling is possible, you receive a clear proposal before work begins.
