Have your documents pre-checked by experts
To avoid rejections and delays, our service includes checking if your documents meet the requirements for UAE embassy attestation.
These are the processing requirements and verification rules for various types of documents:
Certification & Legalisation Process
Some documents must be first certified or notarised.
Non-UK documents require initial attestation by the issuing country (exceptions apply).
The FCDO legalises the certified documents.
Finally, they are submitted to the UAE Embassy in London for attestation.
Separate Processing: Each document must be processed individually.
Bundled apostilled documents are not accepted (except for a Certificate of Incorporation and its Change of Name certificate for the same company).
Invoices: Must be processed separately and certified by the Arab British Chambers of Commerce.
Verification for Specific Documents
The UAE Consulate requires additional verification for:
Powers of Attorney, Board Resolutions, Authorisations of Agent, Affidavits, and Consent Letters.
The requirements are:
Cover Letter: Each signatory must provide a cover letter confirming that the document was signed in the presence of a UK notary public or solicitor.
Passport Copy: Attach a copy of the signatory’s passport.
Contact Information: Include personal email and telephone number.
Multiple Signatories: Every signatory must provide a separate cover letter with signatures matching those on the document and passport.
Cooperation: The Consulate may contact the signatory for further verification.
