Very slow process. Tacking too much time for attestation even 1 paper.Process of Attestation of any document is.First of all you have to go there and whichever you have to do your Document Attest will have a fixed GPO ticket fee. You will find this ticket at the GP Office, then fill out a form. And your forms are there to be submit then wait for your turn you will get attested papers.

Very slow process of documents employee s of this office do not want to cooperate with any person due to heavy rush of people they dont even listen agenda of people. They just try to pull all the public out of office without any Facilitations. Moreover if you have fulfilled all the requirements you have to wait for your time for atleast 4 to 5 hours and if there is a tiny deficiency comes after this long waiting they direct you to visit next day. They should improve the speed of work and deploy more manpower in the best interest of public.My experience stood very bad for being here, got my work done with a big reference.

Went for the document attestation, process steps are: get the tickets from the post office window the detail about ticket is mention on the window. Now go inside and get into the line to get token number, after that wait for your turn the officer will take Ur doc. And after some hour you will get the document attested. But this whole process required minimum 3 to 4 hours. As too many people there for the same task. One thing I found missing they dont have any information counter. But at least they have air-conditioned hall where you spend 3- 4 hours..one important thing only the person can bring his own documents for attestation or else some one blood relatives. Any one else will be needing a authority letter properly attested by foreign embassy if the document belongs to some who is outside the country..

It was not bad experience however if youre coming for documents attestation, you should get these required tickets from nearest Pakistan Post Office to save your time so you can easily go inside for Toekn Number otherwise youve to get pakistan post tickets from outside the MOFA office and it will take time.

Delayed and slow process. Environment is good. Air conditioned, tv present, extended sitting area. Prolonged waiting is a con.Bring your stationery with you. Gum especially. Photocopies of documents along originals. Get postage tickets from nearby post office. Separate notary value for various documents. Go inside, take your number and keep waiting until you are called.

Beautifully designed facility , much appreciation for this kind of service from a GOVT department, process is simple and easy, first you get tickets for your document paste it on and get a photo copy of it , photo copy facility is available inside the centre, then get your token wait for your token to be called and submit your documents and wait for 1-2 hours and your token no will be called to college documents , here you have your documents attested by foreign office.I must say the behaviour of the staff is very nice and helpful to the people also ambient sitting arrangement is in place also including a big park next to the fcailty to wait and enjoy the greenery.

Until n unless we dont produce great scientists, economists, businessman, software engineers etc our foreign ministry will not be able to do something.... we need to be self-reliant n we should focus on our education system which is unable to produce some major name in any field.... If we focus on our education system n make it better then we will able to formulate our own foreign policy....

If want to attest your documents from Ministry of Foreign affairs ( Foreign office)then go to Ministry of foreign affairs and attach tickets to your documents which will be available from the Right side of entrance from a bank.And then go inside. Just entering the main hall at right side from first counter take a form fill it accordingly and the go to the last counter at right side and take ask for a token they will give u a waiting token then wait for your turn. Thats all about your question.BUT BUT.....take photocopy of your original cnic and the document which you have to attest.And the main important thing is that the concerned person must be with you mean k jis k name wo document bna he wo sath hona lazmi he.Thanks

A very rapid system of attestation of documents is present. A post office is situated near attestation service. The 1st step is to paste a postal ticket on your documents. Post office will let you know the price of ticket; then go inside, have photocopy of ur documents. Fill the form, tick the required box. Write ur name. U must have a photo copy of CNIC. Then take token and wait ur turn. Keep on listening the announcement.

Very very very Slow service. After getting the token you have to wait atleast 1 to 1 and a half hour for your number to be called. In my case I had to wait 1 hour 45 minutes... parking is also very very limited. It will be best if you take taxi or otherwise you will have to park the car besides serena hotel.

Process is too slow and also after collecting dacuments they dont return back. They are returning after 3 or may be 4 oclock evening so this is really bad. Even if a person is going to attest only one page so he or she must have to spare the whole day for foreign office.Also there is too much rush ministry should extend it and create more rows for people sitting arrangement is also not enough.

I have visited this place more than once. The overall environment (including no. of seats in waiting area, electronic queuing sys, security arrangement etc) has improved and needs to be appreciated. However, some suggestions: Procedure for getting various documents attested may be pasted somewhere visible so that everyone knows where to start from and what to do next ( I have seen so many people having absolutely no clue which place to approach first - the Bank, the photostat guy or the deposit counter). Secondly, the TCS attestation service may be advertised more so that people from far flung areas can actually avail this facility. And lastly, like at any other government office, you need patience, a lot of it :)
