Attestation is often an integral step when starting or expanding a career or studying further, family reunification or expanding business ventures in Dubai and the UAE.

Sponsoring family members often require legalization of marriage/birth certificates, while businesses expanding operations need legalizing of relevant documentation too.

The Apostille vs UAE Attestation Process

In order to fully appreciate how Philippine certificate attestation for use in the UAE works, it’s vitally important that one differentiates between Apostille Convention requirements and those specific to UAE attestation requirements.

The Philippines joined the Apostille Convention in 2019 as an inaugural signatory. Now, their Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) issues Apostilles as certificates that authenticate documents for use across member nations of this convention, replacing what used to be known as red ribbon authentication processes with this process of certification.

However, since UAE authorities do not recognize Apostilles issued by the Philippines directly, this creates significant obstacles for Filipinos wishing to use their documents there.

📌 Key takeaways: Even if you already possess an Apostille issued by the DFA in the Philippines for your documents, you are still required to undergo the complete UAE attestation process. This involves legalization by the UAE Embassy in Manila followed by attestation by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) in the UAE.

Philippines Attestation in UAE can involve more steps than simply getting an Apostille; understanding this distinction will allow for seamless processing and ensure legal validity for documents in Dubai and throughout the UAE.

Step-by-Step Process of Philippines Certificate Attestation for UAE

To successfully attest your documents within the Emirates, Superior Translation Services carefully and meticulously follows a five-step attestation process designed to authenticate and legalise them for you. We take care in managing each stage on behalf of our customers to guarantee the authenticity and legality of documents within their borders.

Issuing Body Verification (Philippines)

Step one in authenticating any document issued from within the Philippines involves consulting the appropriate issuing authority in order to ascertain that it was issued by legitimate institutions or government agencies, depending upon your document type. For instance:

• Educational Documents: Documents issued by Philippine universities and colleges typically undergo verification by the Commission on Higher Education (CHED).
• Personal Documents: Birth, marriage and death certificates issued by the Philippine Statistics Authority are authenticated through PSA authentication.
• Business/Commercial Documents: Articles of incorporation, trade licenses and other commercial documents Attestation must typically be verified by the Department of Trade & Industry (DTI).

DFA Apostille (Philippines)

Once an issuing body has verified a document, the next step should be obtaining an Apostille from the Philippine Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA). They affix an Apostille certificate to it to authenticate it for use in countries that adhere to the Apostille Convention; although UAE Embassy Attestations does not directly accept them.

UAE Embassy Attestation (Manila)

After receiving the DFA Apostille, your document must then be legalized at the Embassy of the United Arab Emirates in Manila, Philippines. Here, they scrutinize both it and any supporting document before attaching its seal and stamp and officially recognizing them for use within the UAE legal systems – this step bridges authentication between the Philippine legal systems and the UAE legal ones.

UAE MOFA Attestation (Dubai)

The final stage in the Philippine Document Attestation process occurs in Dubai after it has been attested by the Embassy in Manila and then further attested by the MOFA of the UAE in Dubai; once this final legalization step has taken place, it officially validates documents for legal use within the UAE jurisdiction. This official recognition by MOFA validates documents for legal usage throughout their entirety within this region.

Superior Translation Services carefully oversees each step in this process to meet all requirements and process your documents efficiently. Our familiarity with procedures at the Philippine Consulate in Dubai and direct engagement with relevant authorities help streamline this process for our clients.

Common Issues People Face in Attestation

Navigating the complex procedures involved with Philippines document attestation may present many obstacles for those unfamiliar with them, yet Superior Translation Services provides services and support that enable clients to overcome those hurdles:

• Confusion Between Apostille and Attestation: One common misconception regarding using documents in UAE jurisdiction is that an Apostille will suffice, however many remain unaware that while Apostille processes have replaced red ribbon processes they still may cause delays due to missteps from individuals unaware that Apostille processes don’t cover local requirements completely leading to unnecessary confusion and potential delays when trying to use certain documents there.
• Delays caused by skipping steps or missing documents: Attestation requires following an exact set of steps with complete documentation, so skipping stages or providing false or inadequate documentation could cause major delays; failing to do so may even result in rejection of applications.
• Lost or Damaged Certificates Requiring Reissuance: Original documents are crucial when attesting, so any time-consuming process of procuring duplicate copies from issuing authorities in the Philippines prior to beginning attestation must first take place.
• High costs and long timelines when handled independently: Certification can incur extra expenses due to potential errors, repeated submissions, or not understanding fees at each step.
