Canada Certificate Attestation Dubai
We at World Attestation offer Canada Certificate Attestation Dubai. The attestation process of Canadian issues documents differ significantly from what applies with other countries. The main difference is the shortage of apostilles issued by the Hague Convention. For the replacement of this Canada has a procedure named “Authentication and Legalization” in place. As one would expect, attestation is required for such documents to be legally valid and usable in the UAE.
The Basics of Canadian-Issued Document Attestation
The process of attestation includes sending the relevant certificate to Canada and to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the UAE, where the following process should happen in order.
- Authentication: The certificate is transferred to the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade (DFAIT) in Canada, where it awaits approval. After receiving it, a Certificate of Authentication is attached to the document.
- Legalisation: The certificate is sent to the UAE Embassy in Ottawa, Canada, where a Certificate of Legalisation is added.
After the above steps are completed, your certificate such as a degree, birth certificate, or marriage certificate need to be sent back to the UAE and attested by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA). After that, the document is sent back to the owner, who can then use it in the UAE. The procedure remains standard for the most part, although slight variations may occur depending on the type of document being attested. For example, Canadian Degree Attestation requires a copy of the documents to be sent directly from the Canadian university or institution to the UAE Embassy. The embassy also retains the transcripts afterward.
With certain documents, you may be required to have them notarized before authentication and legalization can take place. This means you will need a notary public or lawyer present when the document is signed, who will then attach a notary seal as proof of legitimacy. Once this is completed, you can proceed with the next steps.
