May 21, 2018 by admin

Do you need to legalize and certify your documents through the UAE Embassy in Washington, DC?

At International Apostille, we take the guesswork out of attesting, certifying and legalizing personal and business documents through the United Arab Emirates – UAE Embassy. Our trained and knowledgeable staff are available Monday – Saturday from 8am to 7pm to answer your questions and provide you easy to follow step by step instructions.

As of May 21, 2018 the UAE Embassy charged $45 for personal documents (Example: Diploma, FBI background check, birth certificate, etc…) and $600 for business documents.

Please note that if your documents relate to any type of business activity, the cost is $600 a document. A cashier’s check or money order can be made payable to the United Arab Emirates Embassy to cover the cost.

The UAE (United Arab Emirates) is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention (Convention of 5 October 1961 Abolishing the Requirement of Legalization for Foreign Public Documents). Documents being sent to this country require State, U.S. Department of State, and the UAE (United Arab Emirates) Embassy legalization. This three step process is necessary in order for the country of the UAE (United Arab Emirates) to accept your documents.

Here is an illustration to help explain the process:

The most common documents we can certify and legalize for the UAE (United Arab Emirates) are:

Birth Certificates
Marriage Certificates
Death Certificates
Divorce Decree
Single Status Affidavit
Background Checks (Local, State, FBI)
Power of Attorney
Notarized Documents
Copy of Passport
Copy of Driver License
Transcripts
Diplomas
Authorization Letter

Articles of Incorporation
Certificate of Good Standing

Qatar Diploma Attestation

May 9, 2018 by admin

Do you need your diploma and transcripts attested through the Qatar Consulate or Embassy office?

At International Apostille, we take the guesswork out of legalizing your diploma and transcripts for Qatar. Our trained and knowledgeable staff are available Monday – Saturday from 8am to 7pm to answer your questions and provide you easy to follow step-by-step instructions.

The Country of Qatar has one Embassy office in Washington DC and three Consulate offices located in California (Los Angeles), Texas (Houston), and New York (NYC). Depending on the State your documents will be signed and notarized in, the jurisdiction may fall onto one of the four Qatar government offices.

Certifying and legalizing a diploma for Qatar is a multi-step process. These steps include State certification, U.S. Department of State certification, and Embassy or Consulate legalization.

The Qatar Consulate or Embassy office has strict requirements on attesting diplomas and transcripts.

Here is the list of the six documents we will need (Updated March 2017):
– Copy of your passport
– Notarized original diploma. This must be the original diploma or a new notarized diploma from the school. Black and white or color copies will not be accepted.
– Notarized original transcripts. This must be an original transcript printed by the school on their special tamper resistant paper. Black and white copies will not be accepted. The transcripts must be notarized by the school’s registrar.
– Signed and completed Education Records Consent and Release Form (We will email you this form to complete)
– Signed letter from the school (Enrollment Verification Letter) addressed to the Consulate General of Qatar stating that all of your classes were completed in class and on campus. If any of your classes were completed online, the letter must state the percentage of classes that were completed online. This letter must be an original letter with a ink signature and must be signed and notarized by the school’s registrar. Please see below the key points that must be on the letter.
– Offer letter signed by both the employer and employee.

Verification must include the following key point:

Certificate information is accurate
Enrollment and attendance (Full-time, part-time, distance)
Study and test locations
Degree obtained by the student (diploma: Bachelor’s, Master’s, Doctorate)
Duration of the program
The actual time the student spent to get the certificate (Study start date and end date)
If this is a public or private academic institution
If the student attended more than one institution, it must mention this in the letter.
The letter must mention that the classes took place on campus. If the student took classes online, they will need to know how many classes where taken online and the percentage of these classes.
This letter must be signed and notarized by the school’s registrar.

– Any university degree issued before 01/01/2000 must be submitted with a letter addressed to the Consulate of Qatar proving the completion of all courses, along with an original transcript

– Any university degree issued after 01/01/2000 must be submitted with a letter addressed to the Consulate of Qatar proving the completion of all courses in-class rather than online, along with an original transcript

Here are the two simple steps you will need to take before we can begin to certify and attest your diploma:

Step 1: Notarize Your Diploma, Transcripts, and Enrollment Verification Letter – The first step is to contact the University’s Registrar and request your Diploma, Transcripts, and Enrollment Verification Letter to be notarized. If the school does not have a notary on staff, you will need to request a traveling notary to visit the school and meet with the Registrar.

Step 2: Mail-in Your Documents – The second step is to mail in your original notarized documents including the documents the Qatar Embassy or Consulate office will require (see list above). Failure to provide the required documents will cause delays in attesting your diploma.

Depending on the State your documents were signed and notarized in, the processing time can take two to three weeks to complete. We will coordinate with our apostille offices to complete your documents as quickly as possible. We also provide FedEx/UPS overnight return shipping at no additional cost. We can also ship your completed documents to Qatar. International flat-fee shipping rates apply.

Certifying and legalizing documents for Qatar can be complicated. Don’t leave this process to untrained employees or non-professionals who do not fully understand the legalization process and the unique requirements of certain countries. Your paperwork could be rejected costing you time and money. Don’t let this happen to you!

At International Apostille, we take the guesswork out of legalizing your diploma for Saudi Arabia. Our trained and knowledgeable staff are available Monday – Saturday from 8am to 7pm to answer your questions and provide you easy to follow step-by-step instructions.

Certifying and legalizing documents for Saudi Arabia is a multi-step process.

The Cultural Mission is located just outside Washington, D.C. and in the City of Fairfax, Virginia. The SACM was created by the Saudi government in 1951 to function as an intermediary between U.S. educational institutions and the Saudi government.

Note: The SACM does not attest online degrees. They will only attest degrees from accredited US based Universities.

To authenticate your university degree, the SACM will require the following documents:

Letter to the Director of Authentications at SACM from you. We will provide you a sample of this letter for your reference. This letter must be edited and signed by you (Does not require notarization). Reference: SACM 1. In this letter, you will also grant us authorization to represent you at SACM.

This letter must state the degree granted to you, the dates you attended the university, and method of completion: (online, distance learning, or regular classroom). The letter must specify all online credits, and credits completed on the main campus of the university. This letter must be signed by the University’s registrar. Note: There are some U.S. universities that have opened campuses overseas. The SACM will not attest these degrees because the courses where not completed within the United States.
Letter of employment/offer. This letter must be printed on company letterhead and signed by the company official.
Copy of your passport.
Original copy of your transcripts in a sealed university envelope.
Notarized copy of your diploma. We recommend that you contact the school’s registrar and request either your original diploma or a copy of your diploma to be notarized.
