The Legal Certificate Attestation, UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs says that certificates from people in other countries need to be checked to make sure they’re valid.
This examining process makes sure that the signatures and stamps on these papers are real.
Several certificates such as ones from “school, medical papers, marriage or divorce papers, legal papers” providing someone power, and business contracts require this checking.
In the UAE, checking certificates involves many steps with different groups. It can be hard and pretty confusing to do it on your own, so it’s much easier to have someone else simplify the details for you.
