UK Certificate Attestation for UAE
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a non-member of the Hague Convention. Therefore, all documents intended for use in the UAE require legalization, also known as attestation or authentication, instead of an apostille.
At Express Attestation Services, we facilitate the comprehensive attestation process for your UK documents, ensuring they are legally recognized and accepted in the UAE. The attestation process involves the following steps:
1. Pre-certification by a Solicitor: Before initiating the attestation procedure, your documents need to be pre-certified by a qualified UK solicitor. This step ensures that the documents meet the necessary legal requirements for further attestation.
2. Obtaining the Apostille: Following pre-certification, the documents are issued with an apostille by the UK Foreign & Commonwealth Office (FCO). This additional authentication confirms the validity of the documents on an international level.
3. Legalization stamp from the UAE Embassy: Once the apostille is obtained, the documents are submitted to the UAE Embassy in the UK for further verification and legalization.
4. Ministry of Foreign Affairs (from UAE): The final step involves obtaining the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) attestation from the UAE. This step validates the documents for use within the country’s governmental and legal systems.
