What you'll need to prepare.
Requirements vary slightly by document type, but the core process is consistent. We verify every document at each stage so nothing gets rejected at MOFAIC's final step.
- Original document — no laminated, photocopied, or damaged certificates accepted
- Home-country attestation — prior stamp from the issuing ministry (e.g., Ministry of Education for degrees, Home/Civil Affairs Dept for personal documents, Chamber of Commerce for commercial documents)
- UAE Embassy attestation (in country of origin) — mandatory prerequisite; MOFAIC rejects documents that skip this step
- Passport copy — of the document holder, matching name exactly as it appears on the certificate
- Emirates ID copy — if applying for attestation from within the UAE
- Certified Arabic translation — if the original document isn't in Arabic or English
- Certified legal translation — Arabic ⇄ English & other languages
- UAE Pass registration — required for online MOFAIC portal submissions
