Frequently asked questions about Attestation Services
- What are document attestation services and who needs them in the UAE?
Document attestation services check and certify documents. This is so the authority, employer or body that asks for them will accept them. Expats often need attestation for personal papers such as study and marriage certificates. Businesses need it for corporate papers like the Memorandum of Association and for financial records.
- How does the attestation process work for documents issued outside the UAE?
It is a multi-step process. It involves the relevant ministries in the document's home country and the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA). Each step must be done correctly before the next. That is why many expats and businesses find it hard and slow to manage alone. We handle the whole sequence for you from start to finish.
- What is lawyer attestation and when is it required?
Lawyer attestation is when a lawyer checks and certifies a document. This covers contracts, affidavits, declarations and powers of attorney. It is used where a document must carry a lawyer's confirmation before it is relied on. We review the document, complete the certification and advise on any further attestation it may need.
- Can you provide certified true copies of electronic documents?
Yes. We provide lawyer certified true copy services in Dubai for electronic documents, contracts, affidavits, declarations and other documents that need certification. A certified true copy lets you submit a verified copy while keeping the original safe. Whoever will rely on the copy, here or abroad, decides whether to accept it. So we certify each one to that authority's requirements.
- What is the difference between attestation and notarisation?
Attestation confirms that a document is genuine so that another authority or party will accept it. Notarisation is the act of executing (formally signing) a document. You sign it before a notary, who records that it was properly signed. A document may need one, the other, or both. It depends on who will rely on it. Notarisation is handled by our private notary team.
