Portugal Certificate Attestation

Portuguese Documents Attestation

When using documents issued in Portugal for official purposes in the UAE, attestation is necessary to ensure their legal recognition. Although Portugal is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, an apostille alone is not sufficient for the UAE, as it is a non-member country. Portuguese documents must be attested by the relevant authorities in Portugal, followed by super legalization at the UAE Embassy in Lisbon, and finally attested by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).

Why Portuguese Document Attestation is Important

For any official process in the UAE—such as employment, residency, or business setup—documents from Portugal must go through a specific attestation process to confirm their authenticity. Unlike some European countries where copies can be attested, Portugal requires original documents to be attested, making this a more stringent process.

Types of Documents We Attest:

  • Educational Documents: Degrees, diplomas, and academic transcripts
  • Personal Documents: Birth certificates, marriage certificates, police clearance certificates
  • Commercial Documents: Company registration, power of attorney, articles of association

Portuguese Document Attestation Process:

  • Notarization by Local Authorities: The first step is to have your document attested by the relevant local authority or notary in Portugal.
  • Apostille (Hague Convention): Documents receive an apostille in Portugal, validating them for use in Hague Convention countries.
  • UAE Embassy in Lisbon: For use in the UAE, the apostilled document is then super legalized at the UAE Embassy in Portugal.
  • Ministry of Foreign Affairs (UAE): Finally, the document is attested by MOFA in the UAE to complete the legalization process.
