Self-attestation refers to the process where an individual certifies the authenticity of a document by signing it themselves. This self-certification indicates that the person verifies the document as a truly original copy and is often used in various administrative and legal contexts, reducing the need for notarisation or third-party verification. To self-attest a document, one typically copies the original document, writes ""self-attested"" on it, and signs and dates it. These documents are widely accepted for many official purposes, making it easier to submit required paperwork without needing additional authentication steps.
