How to Get an Indian Marriage Certificate Attested for UAE
Attesting an Indian marriage certificate for use in the UAE involves a multi-step process to ensure its legal validity in the country. Here's a comprehensive guide:
Step 1: Notarization in India
The marriage certificate must first be notarized by a notary public in India. This step ensures that the document is authentic and ready for further processing.
Step 2: State Home Department Attestation
The next step is obtaining attestation from the Home Department of the Indian state where the marriage certificate was issued. This verifies that the document is genuine and officially issued.
Step 3: Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) Attestation
After the state-level attestation, the document needs to be attested by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) in India. The MEA attestation is a critical step in the process.
Step 4: UAE Embassy/Consulate Attestation in India
Once the MEA attestation is complete, the marriage certificate must be attested by the UAE Embassy or Consulate in India. This step officially validates the document for use in the UAE.
Step 5: Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) Attestation in UAE
Finally, after arriving in the UAE, the document must undergo attestation by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA). This step ensures the marriage certificate is legally recognized by UAE authorities.
