True Copy of Engineering Degree Certificate Dubai: Steps, Papers and Cost

True Copy of Engineering Degree Certificate Dubai: What the Service Covers

The notary looks at your original degree certificate and the copy side by side. If they match, the notary certifies the copy. The original stays with you.

We handle your notarisation at our Business Bay office. You can also use our online notary public services or a home visit, and we will tell you which one suits your document.

A true copy of engineering degree certificate Dubai employers and universities accept must come from a notary, not from a copy shop. Typical uses are a job application, a visa or licence file, a university application and a professional registration. Check with the body asking for the copy whether it wants a notarised copy, an attested copy or both.

True Copy of Engineering Degree Certificate Requirements

A notary can only certify what is put in front of them. Before you come, check these points:

• You have the original certificate, not only a scan or a photo.
• The copy is clear, with no cut-off edges, stamps or signatures missing.
• Your name on the certificate matches the name on your ID.
• You know where the copy will be used, because that decides whether attestation follows.

If the original is lost, the issuing university must give you a replacement or a certified duplicate first. A notary cannot certify a copy of something you cannot show.

True Copy of Engineering Degree Certificate Procedure

1. Send us a photo of the certificate and tell us where the copy will be used.
2. We confirm what is needed and whether attestation will follow.
3. You bring the original and your ID to our office, or we arrange an online or home visit appointment.
4. Our in-house notary public compares the copy with the original and certifies it.
5. If the copy is for use outside the UAE, we take care of the attestation chain.

The UAE is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so there is no apostille route. A UAE document for use abroad is attested through MOFAIC. See the MOFAIC attestation service for the official process. Our page on degree certificate attestation for the UAE explains the chain in more detail.

Notarial acts in the UAE are regulated by Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022 on the regulation of the notary profession.

True Copy of Engineering Degree Certificate Processing Time

No official time applies to every document. It depends on whether the notarisation is done in person, online or at your home, and on whether attestation or translation follows. The notarised copy is the quick part. Attestation and translation add steps.

Common Mistakes

• Bringing a scan instead of the original.
• Names that differ between the certificate and the passport.
• Asking for a true copy when the receiving authority wants an attested original.
• Forgetting that a foreign degree needs its attestation chain before UAE attestation.
• Leaving translation until the last day.
