Document Attestation Services in UAE

Attestation is a legal acknowledgment of the authenticity of a document and a verification that appropriate procedures were obeyed. Simply put, attestation is a process to confirm the validity of the seal and signature on documents disseminated in the UAE or abroad. It can be a personal document, commercial document, certain invoices, or certificate of origin. The procedure is required when taking a sliding-door step, such as moving abroad to work or study, sponsoring someone for residency, getting married, adopting a child, and starting a business in a foreign country.

Attestation services, rendered by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs & International Corporation (MoFAIC) in the UAE and by its missions abroad, include the attestation of documents issued by authorities in the UAE or other countries such as:

Individual Affairs Documents

For example, educational documents (certificates & transcripts are viewed as two separate documents), birth certificates, death certificates, medical reports, good conduct certificates, marriage certificates, court-issued certificates, power of attorney of personal nature, to whom it may concern letters, employment contract, employment offers, bank statements, personal tax certificate, and others.

Commercial Documents

For instance, contract or agreement, commercial registration, the appointment of a manager or a director, minutes of a meeting of the board of directors or partners, company change of name, brand registration, distribution agreement, corporate insurance certificate, corporate tax certificate, board of directors decision, trade license, partnership or shareholder certificate, annexes and appendices in commercial documents, memorandums, company closures, company branch registration, bankruptcy documents, financial statement, product registration, patent registration or waiver, trademark registration, power of attorney of business nature, a general power of attorney, signature document, end-user certificate, tax certificate, completion certificate, any other document of commercial nature.
