How to Attest an Indian Degree in the UAE

If you intend to utilize your Indian degree in the UAE for any legal purposes, it requires undergoing an attestation process to establish its legitimacy. Here is an account of the step by step process of attesting educational documents:

Attestation at the State Level in India

The process begins in having the education degree validated by either the respective state’s education department or its human resource department (HRD) which is stationed in the state of the particular university or institution. This step gives more credibility to the document as it has been internationally approved by a state official.

Attestation by Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) in India

When the degree is certified at the respective state, it has to be brought to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) in India for additional certifying. Attestation by the MEA guarantees that the degree is accurate and can be used in the foreign nations without any doubt.

Attestation by UAE Embassy or Consulate in India

The degree is then supposed to be validated by UAE Embassy or Consulate in India after the MEA authentication. This helps in validating the document in the UAE.

MOFA Attestation of Documents

Now, the last step that is left is the MOFA degree attestation which takes place in the United Arab Emirates. It is of utmost importance that MOFA attestation is carried out so that the documents are authenticated by the UAE authorities for employment, educational, and other official requirements.
