India ↔ Russia/CIS: Degree Recognition, Apostille & Admission Routes

The India-side and admission mechanics for Russia & the CIS — whether a NON-medical Russia/CIS degree is recognised in India via AIU equivalence, getting Indian documents apostilled by the MEA, how Russia recognises a foreign qualification, and the direct/contract self-funded admission route.

Alongside MBBS, students face document and recognition questions: validating a non-medical degree in India, apostilling documents, and understanding the self-funded admission route. These guides answer them as neutral, official facts.

Procedures are set by the authorities and change; confirm current requirements on the official AIU, MEA and university/Rossotrudnichestvo (education-in-russia.com) sources.
