Attestation in the UAE is the official process of verifying documents for use in legal, academic, immigration, and employment purposes. Whether you’re applying for a job, planning to study abroad, or sponsoring your family, proper document attestation ensures that your papers are legally recognized by UAE authorities.
At Dar Al Bayan Legal Translation, we provide end-to-end attestation services—from notarization to embassy and MOFA approvals—making the process smooth and stress-free for you.
What Is Attestation?
Attestation is the process of authenticating a document by authorized government bodies to verify its legitimacy. It includes stamping, signing, and verifying the original and translated documents by:
- • Notary Public
- • Home Country Authorities
- • UAE Embassy/Consulate
- • Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) – UAE
Why Do You Need Attestation in the UAE?
Attestation is required for:
- • Employment visa applications
- • Student visa processing
- • Family sponsorship
- • Marriage registration
- • Power of Attorney use
- • Property transactions
- • Academic equivalency and university admissions
Without proper attestation, your documents may be rejected or deemed invalid by UAE institutions.
Step-by-Step Guide to Document Attestation in the UAE
Step 1: Notarization in Your Home Country
Your original document (e.g., degree, birth certificate) must be notarized by a local notary public or authorized body.
Step 2: Attestation by Foreign Affairs in Your Country
Once notarized, it must be approved by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (or equivalent) in your home country.
Step 3: Attestation from UAE Embassy or Consulate
The UAE Embassy in your country then verifies and stamps the document.
Step 4: MOFA Attestation in the UAE
Upon arrival in the UAE, your document needs to be authenticated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) to be legally recognized.
Step 5: Legal Translation (If Needed)
If your document is in a foreign language, a certified Arabic translation is required. Dar Al Bayan Legal Translation Team can help you with MOJ-approved legal translations.
