I need to issue duplicate copy of it. but I have no idea about the Procedure. so will you please give me the link to get the Procedure for issuing duplicate degree certificate from university of Mumbai? You are not the first person who have lost or misplaced their Educational mark sheet(s) or Certificate(s). You can always get duplicate mark-sheet(s) or certificate(s). So just relax and go through below mentioned steps to know: How to get duplicate educational mark-sheet or certificate from Mumbai University (Kalina Campus), using different ways. I have also listed format of each document(s), letter(s), affidavit(s), FIR. How and where to submit the documents, including approximate timelines and fees to get duplicate. This article would be also helpful to NRI (Non resident Indian) or any one else, who is either not in India or can’t visit Mumbai University personally. This article may also benefit persons loosing certificate for non Mumbai University, especially in the case when they are outside India or need an authorized person to complete formalities. Different ways to get duplicate(s): Visit Mumbai University personally (Recommended Option) Apply Online Authorize another person for submission/collection (if you in India) For NRI – Authorize another person for preparation of documents as well as document submission/collection For Bed Ridden Patient – (Medical condition prohibiting signing of any document) For all the above listed ways, following documents need to be prepared. Few additional documents would be required if you can’t make it personally, which I have explained in later part of this article. Police FIR (First Information Report) Notarized affidavit on Rs. 100 Stamp paper Letter to The Controller of Examinations 1. Visit Mumbai University Personally (Recommended option) This is the most easy and hassle free way, if you are in India and okay to go to Mumbai University.

You have to sign only in front of the officer. TIP 2: Many banks, Post office, School/College Principals, Govt Senior officials are authorized Notary officer. They can notarized the document for free. Else, you may be charged around Rs. 50 – 200. TIP 3: Majority of Real Estate agencies, RTO office, Property Registrar offices, Municipality offices, Copier (Xerox) shops outside govt. offices, sell Stamp paper.
