Let’s break down exactly how attested diploma UAE works, what it costs, how long it takes, and why thousands of Indians trust us with their future.
Attested Diploma UAE: Understanding The Whole Process
An attested diploma for the UAE means your diploma has been verified and officially stamped by four authorities. Let us explain what each stamp represents:
1. Your Institute’s Stamp and optional notarization
The first step is to get your diploma certificate verified by the issuing authority. Here, your diploma’s issuing educational body says, “We actually issued this diploma”
Your polytechnic, ITI, nursing college, or institute confirms that they taught you, you completed the course, and you earned the diploma. This is their official confirmation. An optional notarization by a notary public may be needed.
2. State Education Department Stamp
Your state’s Human Resource Development (HRD) or Sub-divisional Magistrate (SDM) verifies the document in the next step. They verify that your institute exists, is recognised, and offers legitimate courses. This proves you didn’t get your diploma from some random person. This stamp proves “This institute and course are legitimate”
2. MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) Stamp
The next step involves MEA’s verification. India’s foreign ministry puts its national seal on it. This MEA stamp is a way of saying: “We, India, confirm this diploma is genuine and recognised“
4. UAE Embassy + MOFA Stamp
Next, you take your documents to the UAE embassy/consulate. The UAE Embassy in India adds its stamp. Then, the UAE’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) add its official stamps. This final approval means: “UAE accepts this diploma as valid”
The Result:
Your diploma now has a complete chain of verification. No one can question its authenticity. It’s accepted everywhere in the UAE — offices, universities, government departments, and PRO (Public Relations Officer) checks.
