What is Self Attestation?

Self attestation is the process of certifying a photocopy or digital copy of an original document by signing it yourself. By writing "Self Attested" and adding your signature (and often the date) on a document, you formally declare and guarantee that the copy is true, genuine, and an exact replica of the original document.

It is commonly required in India and many other countries for official document submissions, KYC verification (such as for bank accounts, SIM card activations, or job applications), and government portal uploads.

How to Properly Self Attest a Document or Photo:

  • For Documents: Print a clean copy of the document, write the phrase "Self Attested" clearly in a blank space, place your signature directly below or near the text, and write the current date.
  • For Photos (Self Attested Photo): When self-attesting a passport-size photograph, you typically sign across the photograph. The signature should start on the paper/document background and cross over onto the face/body in the photo (often referred to as a cross-signature), without covering your face entirely.

Our free online tool allows you to perform this entire process digitally. You can upload your PDF or image, add a clean handwritten-style signature, date stamp it, place it precisely on the page, and download a ready-to-use self-attested file instantly - all fully privately without uploading anything to external servers.
