UAE documents legalization from the United States

The term “Legalization” refers to the process of document`s circulation in official departments in order to be used abroad. The UAE is not a member of the Hague Convention, therefore; the documents have to be processed through a lot of procedures in order to be legalized and licensed to be used in the UAE. There are two kinds of documents:

Legalization of Public State Documents from the US Secretary of State to be used in the UAE
Public State documents such as: Free Sale Certificate, Corporate Documents, Commercial Invoices, Name Change, Educational certificate, Birth, Death, Marriage, and Adopting Child….etc. have to be notarized by a Notary Public and authenticated from the Secretary of State. Then, it has to be certified by the US Department of State in Washington DC. Finally, the document is sent to the UAE Embassy in order to be legalized and licensed to be used in the UEA.

Legalization of Documents issued by Federal Agencies to be used in UAE
Federal Agencies are administrative units of government such as: FDA, FBI, USPTO, Social Security, Homeland Security, Justice Department, and Federal court Judgment....etc. Document issued by Federal Agencies doesn`t need to be notarized, it needs to be authenticated by the US Department of State in Washington DC.
