Get Your Educational Documents Attested in 2 Hours
The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs has announced that the attestation of educational certificates and related documents is now fully digital, with applications processed within two hours during official working hours. This new service is designed to support students and graduates by accelerating the processing of educational documents and simplifying access through the ministry’s official website and smart application.
The digital attestation service covers a wide range of educational documents, including certificates issued under the Ministry of Education curriculum, international school qualifications, and other documents issued by recognised educational institutions. Educational certificates issued through the Ministry of Education, Abu Dhabi’s unified government services platform “TAMM”, and the Sharjah Private Education Authority can be authenticated through the ministry’s digital platform.
To be eligible for the digital attestation service, documents must be UAE-issued electronic records containing a verification feature, such as a QR code, barcode, or reference number. Eligible documents include educational certificates, birth and death certificates, and police clearance certificates. The ministry warned that applications containing inaccurate information, altered or non-original documents, or documents that do not meet the service requirements would be rejected.
Once the process is completed, users can download their digitally attested documents through the “My Applications” section of the ministry’s website. The ministry’s digital platform provides a convenient and efficient way for students and graduates to have their educational documents attested, saving them time and effort.
For students and graduates, this new service means that they can now have their educational documents attested quickly and easily, without having to wait for days or weeks. This can be particularly useful for those who need to submit their documents to employers, universities, or other organisations. The digital attestation service is also expected to reduce the risk of document forgery and tampering, as all documents are verified and authenticated through the ministry’s secure online platform.
To use the digital attestation service, applicants can submit their applications online through the ministry’s website or smart application. The ministry’s customer support team is available to assist with any questions or issues that may arise during the application process.
Here are the next steps to take:
- Visit the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ website or download their smart application to submit your application.
- Ensure that your documents are UAE-issued electronic records containing a verification feature, such as a QR code, barcode, or reference number.
- Fill out the application form accurately and completely, and upload the required documents.
- Pay the required fees and submit your application for processing.
