Indian certificate attestation for the UAE verifies the authenticity of documents issued in India such as educational degrees, birth and marriage certificates, and commercial papers making them legally valid across the Emirates for employment, visa processing, higher education, or family sponsorship.
As per the UAE Embassy’s September 2025 regulations, the attestation process begins with state-level notarization and HRD (Human Resource Department) authentication in India, followed by Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) stamping. After MEA verification, a single digital certificate now combines UAE Embassy and MOFA (Ministry of Foreign Affairs) approvals. This new digital workflow eliminates the need for UAE-side reprocessing.
This streamlined process has reduced turnaround time from several weeks to just 7–10 days, cut costs by nearly 50%, and removed the need for travel or courier handling offering expats a faster and more secure solution.
