MOFA Pakistan Attestation Guide: What Needs to Be Attested First?
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) Pakistan authenticates personal, educational, legal, and commercial documents for international use. However, MOFA does not attest raw primary documents directly. Every document must first undergo prerequisite authentication from its parent issuing department (HEC, IBCC, NADRA, Union Council, or Chamber of Commerce) before MOFA will affix its QR-code legalization stamp.

Can MOFA attest every document directly?
