Attesting Certificates Apr 15, 2005
Can anyone tell me where we can get our certificates attested here in Canada before we go to the UAE?

Thanks so much for your info.....you have been quite helpful to us.

If we decide to have these certificates attested, how long is this valid for do you know?

Also, you should keep in touch with us because we are planning on going to Dubai in September as well. It's nice to know other Canadians before we go there.

I beleive that the attestations of autenthicity are permanent. Once you pay their rip-off fees at the consulate/embassy thats it...

I will keep in touch definatly. We can share out experiences.... :)

Do you have to pay $25 for each certificate?

:(

That is quite expensive if you have 5 or 6 between the 2 of you.....

tip!
if you are applying for a position as an architect don't get every single certificate you own attested. only the one relevant to the position you are going to be taking up. unless it is a teaching or medical profession, then you may need to register your qualifications and will require all of them!

if you are going to work as a waiter don't attest all your degrees from Yale!!!! :lol:
