New Digital Attestation Revolution for Indian Documents.

The Game-Changing Update: UAE Embassy & MOFA Attestation is Now Fully Digital

If you’re planning to move to the UAE for work, higher education, or business, you are likely familiar with the lengthy and complex process of Certificate Attestation. For years, this involved a tedious chain of physical stamps, making applicants wait for weeks and navigate a web of government departments.

Good news! The process has undergone a massive digital transformation. The final and most crucial stages—UAE Embassy Attestation in India and MOFA Attestation in UAE—are now primarily digital.

At Index Attestation Services, we stay ahead of the curve to make your journey seamless. Let’s break down what this new digital Attestation process means for you.

The Old vs. The New: Understanding the Shift

The Traditional (Physical) Process Was:

MEA Attestation (India): Get your document attested by the Ministry of External Affairs in India.
UAE Embassy Attestation (Physical): Courier the original document to the UAE Embassy in New Delhi for a physical stamp.
MOFA Attestation (Physical): Courier the document to the UAE, where it had to be submitted to a Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) office for a final physical stamp.

This process was time-consuming, expensive (due to courier charges), and carried a constant risk of document loss.

The New Digital Attestation Process Is:

MEA Attestation (India): This remains the first step. You get your document attested by the Indian MEA
Digital UAE Embassy Attestation: The physical stamp is replaced by a digital signature. An application is filed through the UAE’s smart system, and the Embassy applies its attestation electronically.
Automatic MOFA Attestation: This is the biggest change. The digital attestation from the UAE Embassy is automatically and instantly integrated into the UAE MOFA’s system. No physical submission is required.

How Does This New Digital Attestation Benefit You?

Unmatched Speed: What used to take 3-4 weeks now can be completed in 2 weeks.
Enhanced Security: Your original documents are safe. The risk of losing them in transit between India and the UAE is eliminated.
Cost-Effective: Save significantly on international courier fees and handling charges.
Total Transparency: Track the status of your Certificate at MOFA VERIFY, 24/7.
Seamless Integration: Your attested document is immediately available in the UAE government’s digital system for visa processing, employment, and other official purposes.
