Importance of Getting Your Papers Attested
The UAE government bodies warmly welcome and acknowledge only the verified documents for a variety of purposes, including:
✔ Applying for residency permits and work visas
✔ Registering a birth or marriage
✔ Transferring property ownership
✔ Acquiring business licenses
✔ Establishing bank accounts
✔ Initiating court cases
Thus, it is crucial to have your certificates attested if you are planning to live, work, or pursue your studies in the country, as it confirms their authenticity and legality. Without the proper attestation, government authorities and organisations might turn down your papers. At Gatestone Group, we confirm that your paperwork meets all attestation standards and is suitable for its intended purpose.
Main Stages of Certificate Attestation in Dubai
The UAE authorities (usually the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or its branches) verify your paperwork.
Once verified, the authority signs and stamps the document to validate its authenticity.
If the papers are issued outside the United Arab Emirates, further confirmation might be necessary at the relevant embassy or consulate.
