Great question! The requirement for attestation of documents before applying to EU universities varies depending on the country, university, and sometimes the specific course you are applying for.

General Guidelines:

1. Most EU Universities
- For Application Stage: Usually, you only need to upload scanned copies of your academic documents (marksheets, transcripts, certificates, etc.) at the initial application stage. These do not always need to be attested or notarized.
- Exception: Some universities or central admission portals (like Uni-Assist in Germany) may request certified copies or notarized translations of your documents, especially if they are not in English or the local language.

2. After Admission Offer
- Once you receive an admission offer, you may be asked to submit attested (certified) hard copies of your documents. This is to confirm the authenticity of your qualifications before final enrollment.
- Attestation can be done by a notary, your school/university, or sometimes by the Embassy.

3. Specific Countries
- Germany: Often requires notarized/certified copies, especially through Uni-Assist.
- France, Netherlands, Italy, Spain, etc.: Generally accept scanned copies for application; attestation may be required later.
- If documents are not in English: Official translations (sometimes attested) are often required.
