Quick answer — Affidavit / Statutory Declaration for use in United Arab Emirates

    Short answer: a Affidavit / Statutory Declaration certified by a Thai Notarial Services Attorney must complete the legalisation steps required by the receiving authority in United Arab Emirates.


    United Arab Emirates is not a party to the Apostille Convention — documents require Department of Consular Affairs legalisation followed by the United Arab Emirates Embassy in Bangkok.

Common problems before filing in United Arab Emirates

    1. Name spelling differs from the passport — check every character, including middle names.

    2. Translation not checked — some United Arab Emirates authorities require a Arabic translation.

    3. Incomplete notarial details — the certificate should show the attorney's name, registration number, signature and seal.

    4. Missing legalisation step — notarisation alone may not be enough; confirm the receiving authority's requirements.

    5. Wrong procedure for the date — steps for Apostille countries may differ before and after 28 February 2027.

    6. Document too old — some authorities set a validity window; confirm with the receiving authority.

Q: Do I need a Arabic translation?
A: English is generally accepted, but certain United Arab Emirates authorities still require Arabic.
Q: Does United Arab Emirates accept e-Apostille (digital)?
A: United Arab Emirates is not an Apostille Convention party — standard consular legalisation is used.
Q: How long does it take?
A: Turnaround depends on document type, volume and government office queues, which change over time. Confirm the delivery schedule in your quotation before work starts.
Q: Do I need to visit the office in person?
A: Only the notary signing step requires an in-person appearance (Bangkok on-site available). MFA and Embassy steps are handled by NYC on your behalf.
Q: What is the United Arab Emirates embassy fee?
A: Embassy fees follow the embassy's published rates and may change. Request a service quotation from our staff.
Q: Do I have to submit the passport original?
A: Only during the notary appointment (same-day return). MFA and embassy steps do not require the original passport.
Q: What if the courier loses the document?
A: We use tracked courier services. If a problem occurs, our staff explain the options and re-filing steps; cover follows the courier's terms.
Q: Is a Thai notarised document guaranteed to be accepted in United Arab Emirates?
A: A Notary + MFA + Embassy document cannot be guaranteed acceptance by anyone; the receiving authority in United Arab Emirates decides. Confirm its format requirements before filing.
