Attestation & Legalisation of Documents
If you are transferring from one country to another, you could’ve heard the term ‘attestation’ a couple of times already. And that is because it is quite a necessity – most especially if you have places to stay for long. In Dubai for example, ‘attestation’, or the legalisation of documents in the UAE is quite an important matter.
Travelling to another country requires a visa – subsequently, your visa will only be issued if your papers will go through a series of attestation procedures. Similarly, there are actually three types of attestation:
- STATE ATTESTATION
This refers to the attestation needed for educational certificates and the like. This happens before taking your documents for MEA ( Ministry of External Affairs ) attestation.
- MEA ATTESTATION
Shortly after the state authorities attest the documents, it will be turned over the MEA for further attestation.
- EMBASSY ATTESTATION
After the MEA Attestation, comes the Embassy Attestation.
APOSTILLE
- For UK certificate attestation in the UAE, this is admissible – like in all countries included in the Hague Convention. With the 92 nations, most western countries like UK, Germany, etc., acknowledges this.
So why do need these attestations?
To validate your documents
There are a lot of companies and other organizations that require attested documents. like for example if you are applying for a job, for a different school, for marriage, or other legal reasons, most require attested papers and documents.
