Frequently asked questions
Why does IBCC need board verification first?
IBCC's rules say every certificate, diploma, mark sheet or result card must be verified by the issuing board before IBCC attests it. IBCC also asks you to confirm the verification is available online in its Attestation Portal before you submit your documents.
Is the fee the same at every board?
No. Each board sets its own fee. BISE Gujranwala raised its IBCC verification fee from Rs. 3,100 to Rs. 4,100 per copy from 19 September 2026. Check the current notification of the board that issued your certificate before paying.
My certificates were attested by IBCC before 2010. Do I need fresh board verification?
Yes. IBCC requires students whose certificates, diplomas or mark sheets were attested before 2010 to submit a fresh verification from the issuing board.
Does HEC need BISE verification for degree attestation?
HEC attests university degrees only, and the university verifies those records directly. Board verification is needed for IBCC attestation of Matric and Intermediate documents. HEC equivalence of a foreign degree asks for your Matric and Inter certificates, or IBCC equivalence for foreign school qualifications.
Fees and procedures change. This guide summarises the official information; confirm on the official page before you pay or apply. Never pay agents who claim to "speed up" official attestation.
