Attestation of Documents in the UAE

Get your personal, educational, and commercial documents attested with clear guidance on verification, notarisation, embassy attestation, MOFA attestation, legalisation, translation, and UAE authority requirements.

Service Overview

Document attestation is the process of verifying a document so it can be accepted for official use in the UAE or abroad.

It is often required for residence visas, work permits, family visa applications, higher education, professional licensing, company formation, business setup, legal matters, and commercial transactions.

The process can apply to many types of documents, including educational certificates, birth certificates, marriage certificates, police clearance certificates, powers of attorney, Memorandums of Association, commercial invoices, and other personal or business papers.

But document attestation can feel confusing because the process may involve multiple authorities.

Depending on where the document was issued and where it will be used, the process may include notary public attestation, home country government attestation, UAE embassy or consulate attestation, and final attestation by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. MOFA’s official attestation service verifies the authenticity of signatures and official seals on documents issued inside or outside the UAE.

At Gatestone Group, we help individuals, investors, entrepreneurs, and companies manage document attestation in a clear and structured way. From document review and requirement guidance to authority coordination, submission support, and final attested document collection, our team helps make the process easier to manage.

Our Document Attestation Process

1. Document Type & Requirement Review

We start by checking the type of document, country of issuance, language, intended use, and the authority where it needs to be submitted.

This helps us identify the right attestation route and the supporting steps required.

2. Document Preparation & Pre-Attestation Guidance

We guide you on whether your document needs notarisation, home country government attestation, embassy or consulate attestation, legal translation, or other preparation before final submission.

This reduces the risk of missing stamps, incomplete paperwork, or avoidable rejection.

3. Authority Submission & Attestation Coordination

Our team helps coordinate the submission process with the relevant authorities where applicable.

This may include notary public, home country authorities, UAE embassy or consulate, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or other official bodies depending on the document and requirement.

4. Final Attestation & Document Collection Support

Once the required stages are completed, we help with final attestation guidance, document collection, and delivery support.

Our goal is to help you receive properly attested documents that are ready for official use, subject to the relevant authority’s acceptance.
