Degree Certificate Attestation in Dubai

An attested degree may be requested when an employer, professional regulator, government body or free zone authority needs authentic evidence of your academic qualification.

This can include requirements connected with MOHRE, DHA, MOHAP and UAE free zones. Degree certificate attestation for a UAE visa or employment purpose is not automatically required in every case; it depends on the role, qualification and receiving authority.

Checking that the degree is genuine and its details are consistent is vital before original-document processing begins.

The attestation of degree certificates varies according to the issuing country and any authentication already completed. Where applicable, the process may include:

1. Notary certification of the degree certificate.
2. Education authority verification of the qualification.
3. Foreign affairs or state-level authentication in the country of issue.
4. UAE Embassy legalisation or digital attestation, depending on the applicable route.
5. Final UAE authentication where required for submission.

Benchmark coordinates the relevant stages and provides reliable case updates. Organised case coordination supports on-time document handling for the parts of the service managed by Benchmark, while government, university, embassy and other third-party processing remains subject to their requirements.

Share a readable scan of your degree to begin the review. We check:

• Country of issue
• Awarding university or institution
• Qualification details
• Passport-name match
• Existing authentication
• Document condition

This can identify incomplete authentication, name differences, inconsistent qualification details, missing supporting documents or lamination where an unlaminated original is required.

A transcript is not required in every case. We may request one, a passport copy or other supporting evidence when relevant to the qualification or receiving authority.

Where an academic or supporting document requires an accepted-language version, we can arrange legal translation in Dubai separately. An early review is one of the top ways to identify avoidable document issues before processing.

Benchmark handles educational certificate attestation for qualifications from global education systems while following the requirements applicable to each country of issue.

For an Indian-issued qualification, use our Indian degree attestation service. For a British qualification, see UK degree attestation for UAE use. For an American qualification, see US degree attestation for the UAE.

For qualifications issued elsewhere, share the certificate with our team so we can identify the appropriate service route.

These are separate services.

Degree attestation authenticates an academic certificate for its required UAE use. University Certificates Recognition is a separate MOHESR process for recognising higher-education qualifications issued outside the UAE and may result in a Recognition Report.

An attested degree therefore does not automatically mean that the qualification has been recognised by MOHESR. If recognition is specifically required, see our certificate equivalency for the UAE service.
