How to get MOJ attestation?

Only a legally approved notary public can notarize the signatures on a document when the signatories are present in person. Document attestation by the Ministry of Justice, on the other hand, can be done by anybody and does not require the presence of the document’s owner.

When you require a certified translation of a document for legal, insurance, or other purposes, we stamp the document with our legal stamp and signature, certifying the accuracy of the translation. Then we take it to the Ministry of Justice to get it certified.

To guarantee that we may affix our legal stamp and signature to the translation, it must have been created locally in the UAE or have the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs stamp on it ahead of time.

The relevant national authority, then the consulate of the country in Dubai, and then the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Dubai Office, shall authenticate or certify all certificates of importance (nature, marriage), academic certificates, and all other certificates used in support of applications for work, residency, trade contracts etc.
