About Attestation
True Copy Attestation is a certification confirming that a photocopy is an exact match to the original document.
It is carried out by an authorised authority such as a notary public or government service centre.
Attestation is required for:
- Visa and immigration procedures
- Bank account opening
- Company formation and licencing
- Employment documentation
- Academic and professional submissions
The attested copy is accepted as a legally valid version when the original cannot be submitted.
About Legalisation
Legalisation is the process of validating a document for use outside the UAE.
It confirms that the document is genuine and officially recognised by foreign governments.
Legalisation typically involves:
- Notary verification
- Attestation by UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA)
- Embassy or consulate authentication
This is required for cross-border business, international contracts, residency applications, and global compliance procedures.
Difference Between Attestation and Legalisation
Attestation and legalisation serve different purposes, and both may be required depending on where the document will be used.
