HEC & MOFA Attestation Cost Calculator — Pakistan
Going abroad for study or work? Count the real attestation bill before you apply. HEC now charges a flat Rs 3,000 per document online — yet old guides still quote the retired Rs 1,000 fee and a Rs 3,000 “urgent” option that no longer exists. Enter your documents, add IBCC and MOFA if you need them, and see the full government total.
Plan your attestation budget
All calculations happen in your browser. Nothing is sent or stored. Government fees only — courier, photocopy and agent costs are extra.

Step 3 — MOFA (only if your destination needs it)
Three steps, in the right order
Count HEC documents, not degrees
HEC charges per document. A degree and its transcript are two documents, even when they belong to the same programme. Count every page that will carry an HEC stamp.
Do not pay for a fast track that does not exist
There is no paid urgent option in the 2026 online system. Anyone charging extra for speed is selling a service, not a government fee.
Add MOFA only if your destination needs it
MOFA comes last, after HEC and IBCC. Choose apostille for Hague Convention countries, general attestation for the rest — and ask your university, employer or embassy which one they accept.
Attestation fees — 2026, as checked 2 November 2026
HEC’s Rs 3,000 figure is the single fee on its Degree Attestation System page under the fully online system. IBCC charges Rs 1,200 per original certificate or DMC. MOFA charges Rs 3,000 for an apostille and no MOFA fee for general attestation — only a revenue stamp.
| Stage | Document | Fee |
|---|---|---|
| HEC | Degree / diploma, transcript / DMC, provisional certificate, equivalence letter | Rs 3,000 each |
| IBCC | Matric / Inter certificate or DMC (original) | Rs 1,200 each |
| MOFA apostille | Educational document (after HEC / IBCC) | Rs 3,000 each |
| MOFA general attestation | Educational document (after HEC / IBCC) | No MOFA fee — revenue stamp only |
Honest limits. This calculator totals government fees only. It does not include courier, photocopy, revenue-stamp or agent costs, and it cannot confirm whether your destination accepts general attestation or requires an apostille.
