Response within 15 minutes during working hours
Overview
What certificate attestation covers
Personal certificates, degrees, transcripts, birth certificates, marriage certificates, professional qualifications, need the full attestation chain before UAE employers, universities, licensing authorities or immigration will accept them as genuine.
This is the same underlying process as our full document attestation service, focused specifically on personal and educational certificates, which have their own common pitfalls, university verification delays being the most frequent.
- Certificate-specific attestation route confirmation
- Home-country notarisation and ministry attestation coordination
- UAE embassy attestation abroad, where required
- MOFA attestation in the UAE
Benefits
Why certificates need specialised handling
University verification anticipated
Degree attestation often needs direct university confirmation, we build this into the timeline rather than being surprised by it.
Correct sequencing
Each stamp depends on the one before it, we run the chain in the right order.
Accepted by UAE authorities
Prepared to the standard employers, universities and government bodies actually require.
Tracked throughout
You know where your original certificate is at every stage.
Who this is for. New residents needing degrees, transcripts, birth or marriage certificates recognised in the UAE for employment, education, licensing or visa purposes.
Requirements & Process
What you’ll need, and how we run it
Documents & eligibility
The exact chain depends on your certificate type and country of origin.
- The original certificate, copies are not accepted at most stages
- Passport copy of the certificate holder
- University or issuing authority contact details, for degree verification
- Evidence of any notarisation already completed in the home country
Additional documents may be required depending on the certificate type and country of origin. We confirm the exact list for your case before any fee is paid.
How it works
The 5-stage process
Timelines depend heavily on the certificate’s country of origin and, for degrees, university response times.
| Stage | What happens | Typical time |
|---|---|---|
| 01. Certificate review | We examine the original certificate and confirm its exact attestation route. | 1 working day |
| 02. Home-country notarisation and ministry attestation | The certificate is notarised and attested by the foreign ministry in its country of origin. | 3–10 working days |
| 03. UAE embassy attestation abroad | The UAE embassy or consulate in the issuing country attests the certificate. | 2–6 working days |
| 04. Courier to the UAE | The attested original is couriered to the UAE with tracking. | 2–5 working days |
| 05. MOFA attestation and handover | The final UAE MOFA stamp is completed and the certificate delivered ready to use. | 1–3 working days |
