What is Apostille?
Apostille is an internationally recognized certificate that authenticates documents like birth certificates, degrees, and marriage certificates for use in countries part of the Hague Convention of 1961. However, since the UAE is not a signatory, documents must follow a legalization process instead of a simple Apostille.

Why Apostille Attestation for the UAE?
For documents from Hague-member countries to be valid in the UAE, they need:

• Apostille from the issuing country

• Embassy Attestation from the UAE Embassy in that country

• Final MOFA Attestation in the UAE

This applies to educational, personal, and commercial documents.

Documents That May Require Apostille Attestation:

• Birth, Marriage, Death Certificates

• Academic Degrees & Transcripts

• Divorce Decrees, Affidavits

• Powers of Attorney

• Business Documents (MOA, COI, Invoices)
